I agree that there is no reason to think the area should have sprung to life all at once, but there is very little happening at all that I can see. In particular, in an area where there seems to be a lot of housing absorption, there has been no residential development at all. There are, however, an increasing number of parking lots. Given that downtown has improved in general since the inception of the project, and considering the amount of public money sunk into District Detroit, there might be a bit more progress toward the vision which they originally presented.
