What this article have to do with Detroit? So far there are no other sources that like a Chicago based company to develop homes, lofts and condos to our ghettohoods. The article and your thread is NON SEQUITUR! (Message edited by danny on May 23, 2007) |

quote:“We are confident that the plans that you’ve laid out are realistic and achievable. And we are determined that Chicago will continue to show the way to renewing all of America’s cities,” he told an audience of neighborhood planners. So confident, in fact, that The MacArthur Foundation is kicking in another $4 million to replicate the “Chicago model” in 10 other locations. They include: Detroit, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Milwaukee, Washington, D.C., and Minneapolis-St. Paul. |

Haha, Johnlodge. Non-sequitor or not... Is it 4 mill per city or total divided by ten? Either way, Detroit is getting help, we should celebrate! Anyone up for painting over graffiti???? |
