I lived in the area of Detroit that is listed as The Eye from '83-'06. Physically, the area is bound by Telegraph-Five Points-Grand River-McNichols. The name The Eye was given to the community organized watch group that formed in the 1980s to patrol the area day and night to deter home break-ins. Signs were put up in this area at points of entry to let would-be thieves know that the community was looking out for itself. The campaign was successful for a few years. I don't know how active the watch group is anymore. The signs for The Eye still exist and I believe that is why the area is still referred to as The Eye. Historically, it should have a reference and a name related to Redford Township.
