I’m sorry but I didn;t see the article. I had to look for it after reading thr paraphrase “it’s all starting to come together”, My question is for who?

The average Detroiter(Not metro-Detroit, Just Detroiter) pays high property taxes, lives in an area riddled with crime, depreciating home values and little opportunities to advance.

What a joke. I would love to take people on a tour so they can see how much ground we’ve lost and continue to lose.

DId everybody forget about how Kwame further embarassed our city?

The only thing kicking butt in Detroit is the Red Wings and the last time i checked, that only impacts the morale of hockey fans.

Detroit is in critical condition and needs real help. Not smoke blown from someone in New York.

I could not agree more! Thank you for speaking up!

It is a sad, sad state of affairs when a city ravaged by 2 hurricanes & a flood is in a better economic state than Detroit.

I moved to New Orleans 3 years ago to do hurricane relief work, and stayed - not just because I got a great interior design job, but because I LOVE it here!

Sure, there’s crime & urban decay - just like ANY city. But the difference is that there is enough positive to outweigh, or lat least balance-out the negative.

Every time I visit home, I have to stand in my fair city for a minute, and wonder… what will be the fate of one of the most unique places on Earth?

No one is moving to Michigan. Because there is no reason to. Arts & entertainment are not supported or advertised thoroughly (or even at all sometimes), and quite frankly, it is a boring place on a daily basis for the easily-bored urbanite.

The property being bought-up @ rapid rates is by uber-rich out-of-town development corps that have money to blow on super-duper cheap property in Detroit. Corps that will swiftly strip the city of its heart and soul with abandon in order to put up their Disneylands and Las Vegas shows.

I see no longevity in that whatsoever.
