I would like to revitalize the neighborhood shopping areas. Not only the Avenue of Fashion, but Grand River/Greenfield, Six Mile/Schaefer, and whatever the east side equivalents would be. [[You can probably tell I grew up in Northwest Detroit.) Start a small business incubator and encourage larger businesses to come to town. Adequately fund public services such as police and trash pickup, to restore a sense of security. Improve the school system by looking at what has worked in other places and trying it out. Giving incentives to Detroiters who have gone outside the city for higher education to return.
And that's just off the top of my head!
