Later developments, like Cleveland’s Outhwaite Homes, were reserved for African Americans. Overtly racist public housing policies were repealed by the end of WW2. Though, segregationist attitudes persisted well into the 1970s and most of the public housing developments on Cleveland's westside remained white only. Public housing in the U.S. was deliberately segregated imposing a legacy that contributes to present day racial and socio-economic divisions in residential America.
