Hello all, and welcome to Detroit Visions.
Detroit Visions has been created to provide a forum where we could discuss we want to see for the city of Detroit. We have a remarkable opportunity to reshape Detroit for the better, so let’s figure out how.
- What should the priorities be going forward?
- What should land use be where?
- How can we kickstart retail?
- How do we treat transit?
- How can we finally remake the economy to escape these destructive cycles?
- Most importantly, how do we envision Detroit in its ideal form?
It is this envisioning process that will be so very key going forward. In this transition period, all the region’s eyes are on Detroit. How can that be leveraged?
The main site is in the process of being created, so all traffic is being redirected to this site. When completed, it will offer a social platform for creating and submitting ideas about Detroit, with data, maps, photos, and much more. It will also have metro.detroitvisions.org to gather regional ideas about the economy, transit, land use planning, etc. Look for it in finished product in January, just in time for the mayoral primary. It is under development right now at detroitvisions.org/beta.
For right now, thoughts will be published on this blog, and feel free to comment.
