In front of my desk at City Hall hangs a print of Boy with Tire (1952), a notable work by Cleveland’s Hughie Lee-Smith. The painting centers on a melancholy young man rolling a tire, staring back with steady skepticism. Behind him sits a gloomy, boarded-up neighborhood. It reads like a portrait of what happens when a city’s disparities harden into daily loneliness.

In less than two years' time, Opportunity Zones have had an impressive fall from grace. In the minds of many, they've gone from being the most promising economic development tool in decades to just another way for the rich to get richer and the poor poorer. It's true that in the short period since this federal tax incentive was introduced, Opportunity Zone-related activity has not been as robust as many had predicted or hoped, nor has it led to dramatic reinvestment in low-income communities.
