Fingers crossed that "exterior" means power washed too.
Duggan might as well announce that the city's biggest eyesore is getting a clean-up, it continues to convey the message that Detroit is rebounding quickly and the mayor is facilitating the turnaround. People/Businesses in the suburbs are seeing these announcements week by week through local news outlets. The momentum seems undeniable, but is it sustainable?
