this may be a repost - but perhaps something completely radical / unexpected and reasonably economical / self sustaining is what we need.
the more i think about this the more i think its viable. i believe i heard a WDET article this morning talking about how detroit has one of the highest percentages of jobs located outside the core of the city.
if so - a green ring could serve both the inner city and the exurbs on several levels of need. it certainly would be cheaper and more useful than tract housing or strip malls considering the economy.
