An association of 1,400 residents was formed to buy it, but the remaining 450 tenants hoped the government would continue to subsidize their rent. In 1949, Congress mandated the town be sold, and the sale occurred in 1952. Membership in the Greenbelt Veterans Housing Corporation—predecessor of GHI—consisted of just over 50% veterans, as required by Congress. GVHC gave residents one year to begin making purchase payments or move out. As a result of his involvement with the project, GVHC attorney and Greenbelt resident Abraham Chasanow lost his Navy job as a target of McCarthyism, but was later cleared of all charges.[10] In 1957, the membership voted to rename the Greenbelt Veterans Housing Corporation to Greenbelt Homes, Inc.[11] In popular cultureThe town and residences which were to become GHI were the subject of the 1939 documentary film The City. The story of the McCarthyism persecution of Abraham Chasanow, one of the founders of the Greenbelt Veterans Housing Corporation, was documented in the movie Three Brave Men, starring Ray Milland and Ernest Borgnine.[12] GalleryReferences1. ^{{cite web | title = Greenbelt Homes Inc. | publisher = The Historical Marker database | url = http://www.hmdb.org/marker.asp?marker=26553 | accessdate = 2010-07-20}} 2. ^{{cite web | title = Contact information for GHI Members | publisher = Greenbelt Homes, Inc. | url = http://ghi.coop/content/contact-us | accessdate = 2013-03-07}} 3. ^{{cite web | title = Current Board Members | publisher = Greenbelt Homes, Inc. | url = http://ghi.coop/content/current-board-members | accessdate = 2016-07-07}} 4. ^{{cite web | title = Parkway Apartments | publisher = Greenbelt Homes, Inc. | url = http://parkway.ghi.coop/ | accessdate = 2011-06-14}} 5. ^{{Citation | last = Vick | first = Karl | title = In FDR Years, 'Sleepy Southern Town' Woke Up | newspaper = The Washington Post | date = 1997-04-20 | accessdate = 2010-07-20 | url = https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/local/longterm/tours/fdr/impact.htm }} 6. ^{{Citation | author=Mary Lou Williamson (editor) | title=Greenbelt: History of a New Town, 1937-1987 | publisher=The Donning Company | year=1987 | isbn=0-89865-607-9}} 7. ^{{Citation | last = Halpern | first = Sue | title = New Deal City | newspaper = Mother Jones | date = May–June 2002 | accessdate = 2007-07-07 | url = https://www.motherjones.com/commentary/commons/2002/05/commons.html }} 8. ^{{cite web |title=National Register of Historic Places Inventory-Nomination: |url={{NHLS url|id=80004331}} |format=pdf |author= |publisher=National Park Service}} and {{NHLS url|id=80004331|title=Accompanying photos, exterior and interior, from 19|photos=y}} {{small|(32 KB)}} 9. ^{{cite news | title = HOUSING: Greenbelt | url = http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,770837-1,00.html | newspaper = Time | date = 1937-09-13 | accessdate = 2010-07-23 }} 10. ^{{cite news | title = THE ADMINISTRATION: The Greenbelt Mystery | url = http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,819817-1,00.html | newspaper = Time | date = 1954-05-10 | accessdate = 2010-07-23 }} 11. ^{{Citation | author=Mary Lou Williamson (editor) | title=Greenbelt: History of a New Town, 1937-1987 | pages= 190 | publisher=The Donning Company | year=1987 | isbn=0-89865-607-9}} 12. ^{{cite news | title = Movie Review: Three Brave Men (1957) | first = Bosley | last = Crowther | url = https://movies.nytimes.com/movie/review?res=9E03EEDA1639E33BBC4E52DFB566838C649EDE | newspaper = The New York Times | date = March 16, 1957 | accessdate = September 3, 2010}} External links
