Detroit's future is not dependant on the Downtown area. Rather the local
neighborhoods are what the city needs to survive. It is difficult to build
a buisness on Lunch traffic. The stadiums were a waste of money. Small
microloans could have gone alot further to improving the city or even
clearing vacant lots and burned out cars from the streets. I don't like
the
way the city is heading, but at least there is a vision inmind.
