I'd encourage you to read The Power Broker, if you haven't. Some examples that aren't "policy decisions" we can disagree with given our knowledge of how it turned out (eg, building or not building public transit in a given place), but rather things that were clearly morally wrong at the time:

- repeated wholesale destruction of low-income neighborhoods through a variety of bridge, park, and highway construction projects

- evicting farmers and poor rural landowners through opaque legal methods to build highways and parks atop their land

- running a "slum clearance" program that primarily evicted people from slums and demolished them without providing any real place for the humans to go afterwards

- funneling vast sums of money into the pockets of collaborators, friends, and, in the end, himself

The Power Broker paints a nuanced picture, but he did some pretty terrible things in his time.
