    I don't think that anyone ever posted about Mayor Duggan's "20 Minute neighborhood" plan as outlined at the Mackinac policy conference. I watched this entire 47 minute clip a few weeks ago, and it was quite interesting. I recall hearing something about student housing, so I reviewed it today.

    The Mayor goes into detail about plans for the area between Marygrove and UDM, including restored housing and a greenway among other things. At about the 19 minute mark, he mentions that a plan for student housing south of UDM is being worked on.

    This "20 Minute Neighborhood" plan is also in the works for West Village and SW around Clark Park. Plans for WV always interest me, being a former resident. At the 20:18 mark, the screen shows what appears to be new townhouses at Van Dyke and Coe, I believe. That would be great!

    I enjoyed that part of the mayor's talk when I saw it - excellent awareness of what they need to be doing to build attractive places to live in the city. Love living in my own "20 minute neighborhood" though never thought of it that way until seeing this. These plans for the three neighborhoods mentioned might be worth a separate thread.

    I was thinking that it was worth a separate thread as well.
