Not to mention the fact that cleaners, if the plant is on site, generate a significant environmental hazard for future leasing.

Check out the TCRP Bus rapid Transit Practitioners Guide [[report 118). should be available on the usdot website somewhere for free. That discusses comparative costs.

Yeah. Short North/Victorian Village are arguably about the equivalent of some parts of Ann Arbor. In Detroit we'd be linking no-mans-land with downtown. Just ask Hans57 [[member of this forum) he...

Thanks for the ideas. I'll have to start digging in the bank statements. More likely than not, I'll just end up having to pay it and be bitter about it for a while lol.

Alright, so my wife got a parking ticket back in June of 2012, and I distinctly remember paying it. Problem is, I need to sift through my old bank statements to prove it.

I paid it when it was...

My qualm is that people are firing off saying it's an issue of disrespect that the state wants to come "take" it from the city. I can't quite grasp how anyone could argue that the city has many other...

And to be clear, neither of us think the island is a "piece of shit." I've spent a lot of time on that island, stood up in weddings on that island, and we both have great admiration for the park. The...

What are some of Metro Detroit's big immigrant-started companies [[including those...

Yep, definitely a sidewalk.

I think a lot of us need to understand the fact that Detroit will never "come back." It's just not possible. This may be a risky venture, but it's going to happen, whether by political maneuvering or...

I'm gonna skip the debate, and cut straight to the point: It's not going to happen.

actually, one of my partners did most of the research regarding what's going on in the city. we actually went to Catherine Ferguson Academy [[the school you're talking about) and interviewed the...

my god! How did I forget to mention pingree!? Time to revise the presentation!

Gnome, thanks for the link.

Nah, I'm not trying to make a link between the two. I'm basically trying to make the point that there was agriculture here before the city became a manufacturing...

Hey all,

I'm working on a project at school advocating urban agriculture in Detroit [[and other shrinking cities), and I'm trying to find some good images of...

While I agree that Kunstler knows little about the city of Detroit, I will give him that his writing style itself is humorous [[at least) in Geography of Nowhere. It's quite clear that he's a huge DPZ...

Hello all,

been a long time since I've posted on here [[before the new format, as a matter of fact), but I'm hoping someone out there might be able to guide me in the right direction...

I am...
