A few years ago, I heard that in Atlantic City, Donald Trump was building a hotel or casino (I think) over and around the home of a little old lady who'd lived there 30 or 40 years and refused to sell or move. The construction workers had strung safety nets over the house and she said they were constantly dropping things on her roof. Do you remember this story? Whatever happened to her?

Institute for Justice (IJ) has info regarding the case.
Thanks to IJ’s advocacy, Vera Coking won her fight for her Atlantic City home against a New Jersey state agency and Donald Trump.
