New Brunswick contains a number of examples of [[urban renewal]] in the United States. In the 1960s–1970s, the downtown area experienced [[urban decay]] as middle class residents moved to newer suburbs surrounding the city, an example of the phenomenon known as "[[white flight]]." Beginning in 1975, [[Rutgers University–New Brunswick|Rutgers University]], [[Johnson & Johnson]] and the city's government collaborated through the [[New Jersey Economic Development Authority]] to form the New Brunswick Development Company (DevCo), with the goal of revitalizing the city center and redeveloping neighborhoods considered to be blighted and dangerous (via demolition of existing buildings and construction of new ones).<ref>Picard, Joseph.
