Slang for gentrification, a.k.a. revitalization or urban renewal. The term 'gentro' is most often used by those *opposed* to either the concept, the process, or a specific gentrification project. Those who benefit from gentrification rarely call it gentro (except maybe as a joke).
Damn, I can't live in the city anymore - gentro is wiping out all the affordable apartments!
Gentro? There goes the hood!
