'BOMBER CITY' DISAPPEARS: Ramshackle rental housing unites in Willow Village are being reduced to rubble as land is cleared for the construction of privately-owned homes. Of the 534 buildings, containing more than 3,000 apartments, which stood since World War II, almost half have been razed. More than 350 families have left the rental housing so far this year, leaving only 882 apartments occupied.
