Warning or opportunity for Detroit?

[Stravo]

So many have used Detroit as the example of disaster. I see it entirely differently. Detroit is a precious opportunity for a new, people-based arcology that supplies all the needs & expressions of our gregarious species. We-the-peeps must grasp that opportunity before the window closes-- again.

Please, if you're here to pitch failed, old paradigms or just to criticize w/o any suggestions, go elsewhere. I'm looking for out of the box thinkers. Like old Henry himself.
