"Down-at-heel" -> nghĩa là trong tình trạng xấu, hỏng hóc vì sử dụng quá lâu hoặc không được chăm sóc kĩ, nghĩa khác là mặc quần áo cũ, hỏng vì diều kiện kinh tế hạn hẹp.

Ví dụ
LaGuardia’s $8 billion transformation from a somewhat down-at-heel New York airport to a modern travel gateway in the borough (khu) of Queens is now 80% complete.

Over the years, immigration (người nhập cư) has helped transform Australia's retail and urban landscape, reviving down-at-heel suburban high streets, spurring (khích lệ) swanky commercial property development and creating new consumer markets.

I chose a landmark building with out-houses; it was very much down at heel. I was influenced (tác động) by what was happening around me.
