As to why that particular team didn't include it, why should they above anyone else have included it? Was the affordable housing somehow going to be for minority residents only?

This is pretty much exactly the answer I was hoping to avoid with my question. I wasn't trying to make this a race thing in any manner. I do think it is a totally fair to suggest though that, if the development had originally been proposed as residential or partial residential, an all black development team would prioritize an affordable component. Whether they would prioritize more than any others is a fair question in this current society of ours that need not be critically picked apart.
