    This is before the Penobscot and Guardian. Not a building I see talked about much.

    Removing any part of 75 would be a disaster. With the new Canadian bridge going up, we would literally be building a bridge to nowhere.

    Detroit never was and never will be New York. These developers hacked through neighborhoods in every major city in America. Half of those aren't even in the US.

    Manhattan is almost circled by freeways. I'm not against mass transit. Despite New York's mass transit, only about 50% of the population use it to commute to work. That is nearly 20% higher than the...

    I consider Midtown as usually MLK north but I will concede that the Cass Corridor is Midtown. I don't see the Temple bar as being enough to draw in developers. We then have a high school, a run down...

    The Park Avenue hotel is isolated and disconnected from Midtown and Downtown. If the arena project goes as planned, it seems like a great way to bridge the gap between the two neighborhoods. On its...

    This is different than simply removing freeways. New York does have freeways and sprawl across three states. There are freeways that can take you from White Plains to Manhattan. Most of the fastest...

    The jobs would just move out of state to cities that provide freeways. Every city in America has freeways that take them out of downtown. How come Detroit and Cleveland is effected more than any...

    Illitch can up and move the team to the Palace. It can't be any worse than Joe Louis. I can't believe one building is going to hold this project up. Nobody else is going to develop that building...

    I meant iffy as in blight/upkeep of homes and not in terms of crime. I go to the Warren rec center a lot with my daughter and some of her cousins and friends. Some of them live in different cities...

    I'm just not seeing this great decline people are talking about. There's a lot of really nice areas in northeast Warren. Northwest Warren has some nice areas. The Mound and Van Dyke corridors can...

    Interesting how I don't observe this in my neighborhood. I guess I live in the only one left in Warren.

    I assumed he was from Birmingham judging by his user name.

    I live in Warren Woods and have no problem sending my kids there. My wife went to Center Line and it was fine. I don't think the quality of teachers or education is any worse than any other...

    Myself and my family live south of 696. I can safely say my neighborhood is not in bad shape and in severe decline. The usual obvious reasons you listed are not true. I'm glad you are able to paint...

    This is simply not true. Warren south of 696 is not in severe decline. Some pockets around 8 Mile and Van Dyke are in decline. Warren has bottomed out on the population decline and new census...

    I really doubt Detroit has more miles of freeway lanes than any other city in the world.

    What's not reflected in the census is that a sizable chunk of the white population is Arab or Eastern European. Northwest Warren has a high Ukrainian population. South Warren that people are...

    I'm a resident of Warren and have been reading this forum for some time and felt motivated to post after this Warren bashing I see going on here.
