Leveraging the Detroit-Windsor International Metropolis Status

[bust]

A gondola would definitely be a tourist draw and a great symbol of cooperation that would quickly become an emblem featured in every postcard view of the skyline. Whether it's worth the expense or even feasible I can't say.

After the WTC attacks in NYC there was no transit option across the Hudson River to/from lower Manhattan except a passenger ferry. I used it frequently. It's such a better experience than a PATH train. [[And a PATH train is already so much better than a bus.) That boat ride across the river felt like a mini-vacation, even during the winter. Quite a great way to commute to and from work.

BTW, How do you measure the value of quality of life? It doesn't make sense to assess the merit of ideas like these merely via a comparison of expenses vs. fare receipts.
