Slow zoom into a Chinese style Starbucks coffee shop 25. Mid of electronic AT&T sign and advertising screens, pull out to reveal Chinatown gate STORYLINE America's historic Chinatowns, home for a century to immigrants seeking social support and refuge from racism, appear to be fading in major cities, while Asian immigrants now find homes in the suburbs. As the Lunar New Year begins on Monday, shoppers in San Francisco's Chinatown prepare to join family, often taking grandmother from the city, to a child's home in the suburbs for the celebration. The signs are evident elsewhere, from Los Angeles and Boston, to Houston, San Francisco and Seattle, where shiny new "satellite Chinatowns" in the suburbs rival if not overshadow the originals. Professor David Lee grew up in San Francisco's Chinatown. Now, when he returns, he sees the changes as more and more second generation residents leave the city. Urban Chinatowns continue to serve a role for newly arrived immigrants with less education who seek entry into low-wage work as well as elderly residents with poor English skills who can't drive. But middle-class families are almost nowhere to be found, and in many places rising downtown property costs and white gentrification threaten their traditional existence. One San Francisco suburb where a lot of Chinese immigrants now call home is Millbrae. The town is covered in signs celebrating the lunar New Year in both English and Chinese. Christopher Chan grew up in the urban Chinatown of San Francisco, but moved to the suburbs nearly 20 years ago. Nationwide, about 62 percent of Asian-Americans in the nation's large metropolitan areas live in the suburbs, up from 54 percent in 1990 and the highest ever. Now the fastest-growing racial group in the US, Asian-Americans are more likely than other minorities to live in the suburbs; only white Americans at 78 percent are higher. Since 2000, nearly three-fourths of Asian population growth in the US occurred in suburbs, many of them in the South. Organisers of the Lunar New Year festival in Washington, DC, for the first time have hired a large marketing firm to boost attendance at annual festivities in their shrivelling Chinatown. Fifteen years ago, Washington's Chinatown covered fifteen square blocks. Today, the few Chinese restaurants and pharmacies cover barely four square blocks. A major new sports complex for Washington's basketball team took out several square blocks, and other companies found the urban property profitable. Signs of Chinatown decline can be seen in the Washington, DC, metro area, home to more than one-half (m) million Asian-Americans, with fewer than 500 Asians living in the downtown neighbourhood. Once a close-knit community with modest shops and houses, the Chinatown is known more for its city sports arena, luxury apartments and national chains including Starbucks, Hooters and Legal Seafood. The Chinese residents have long since scattered, moving to large Asian communities in suburban Montgomery County and Fairfax County. Many who remain are elderly and live in federally subsidised housing, taking vans several times a week to Great Wall, a Chinese supermarket in suburban Falls Church, so they can buy groceries.

Kathie Lee Gifford Protest (03/16/1998)
Workers from New York City's Chinatown garment industry protested at A-B-C Television against Kathie Lee Gifford today, demanding she pay the workers who make the garments bearing her name. The show "Live with Regis and Kathie Lee" is taped at the A-B-C Television Studio at 7 Lincoln Square. However, the show is not being taped this week. The workers were joined by members of "National Mobilization Against Sweatshops." Gifford's lawyer denies she owes money to anyone.
