the community, tore up our businesses, where we had it and

destroyed our home. So I was really upset.

 (Ms. Daily): What was it like when the expressway was being

constructed?

 (Mrs. Lockheart): Well I don't know much about the

construction, what they did because that was out of our area, you

know up the northern area, I don't know, un hum.

 (Ms. Daily): What was the community able to get from public

officials in return for 1-95 going through Overtown?

 (Mrs. Lockheart): I don't think they got anything. Now,

that's just my thinking.

 (Ms. Daily): The next set of questions umm, I'll ask you is

ah what...this set of question will...is regarding your decision,

if your decision to move was because of 1-95.

 (Mrs. Lockheart): You mean when I moved now?

 (Ms. Daily): When you moved then..

 (Mrs. Lockheart): un hun.

 (Ms. Daily): If the decision you made then was because of the

1-95 passing through.

 (Mrs. Lockheart): Oh yeah, that's why I moved out here in the

Allapattah area. (Telephone ringing) Pardon me one second.

 (Ms. Daily): When did you decide to change your place of

residence?

 (Mrs. Lockheart): In 1960. Between '60 and '61 when I moved

out here.

 (Ms. Daily): Why do you think it was appropriate to change
