New York's Harlem district may be gentrifying, but its famed
Amateur Night at the Apollo Theater will live on.

紐約的哈林區或許將進行重建,不過阿波羅劇院大名鼎鼎的「業餘之夜」仍將繼續上演。

------------------------------------------------

gentrify重建,並不是平常我們看災難新聞常聽到的災後重建 (restore, rebuild, reconstruct, re-establish,
rehabilitate)
,而是將貧民居住區改建、翻新、升格成中產階級居住區,
因為會吸引較高收入人士遷入結果使該房價上漲,又有人譯作「貴族化。不過這兩個翻譯都不是最理想的,其實我個人認為這比較像重劃區或都市更新的概念。

------------------------------------------------

more example

Gentrification, or urban gentrification, is the change in
an urban area associated with the movement of more
affluent individuals into a lower-class area. More households
with higher incomes result in increased real estate values with higher associated rent, home prices, and property taxes.
