There has been talk of downsizing and farming and more parks throughout the city's land and unearthing old rivers that used to flow through the city, but are there any groups that are working on unearthing the old rivers. Baby creek, Connor's creek and a few others seem likely and easy [[so to speak). I lived for about 20 years in Old Redford and felt that the Rouge branch that wound it's way throughout NW Detroit had tremendous potential for development. There were some rather substantial drops in elevation in relatively or potential midddle class area which could look real cool. There were some people on Cooley street south of Grand River that had terraced their property beautifully. The backyard was the terrace. The area around Lyndon and Outer Drive in Brightmoor that had some real drops in elevation. I always thought they could damn it form a lake with a waterfall and let it flow into the Rouge about 1/2 mile away. There would be a road around the lake which would be a major road in Brighmoor which would be a lake district. Any groups working on earthing old rivers?
