I cleaned up the grammar and usage of the article. I also condensed the discussion of restrictive covenants. Nichols did not invent the race-based restrictive covenant model. It had been used in Boston a century before. Nichols did utilize restrictive covenants, but these his restrictive covenants were not only about race--he used restrictive covenants to cover all aspects of his development. The article is not a proper place for an extensive discussion about race relations in Kansas City in the 20th century, although this is worth mentioning in this article--which is why I summarized it and condensed it. Moreover, the former article included an extended discussion of what a restrictive covenant is, which was unnecessary since there is an entire article devoted to them.
