What, exactly and if any, is the future of housing in Detroit? The rise of downtown and midtown has given me thought of what's going to come. Once we reach a critical mass, are we going to see the building of towers and apartment rows?
While I know the challenges Detroit is facing, I think we reached bottom around this time last year and things can only get better, albeit the Matterhorn to normalcy in front of us. But we are still trekking.
And what about the neighborhoods surrounding? Corktown, Woodbridge, North End, West Village, and Brush Park have the most to gain from the CBD's rise. But they contain many housing holes. Will developers look to build there? And if so, what? Houses, apartment buildings?
I don't want to say one is better than the other, but Detroit's housing was heavily invested in single family housing which wasn't the best idea.
I want to hear your thoughts, let's try to keep it to a dull roar.
