We know that Detroit Future City is an extensive document, so we would like to highlight smaller sections of the framework to make it easier for you to become familiar with the different strategies. 

Every weekday we highlight a small section from one of the Planning Elements on our Facebook & Twitter pages. Monday: Economic Growth, Tuesdays: Land Use, Wednesdays: City Systems, Thursdays: Pubic Land & Buildings Assets, Fridays: Neighborhoods. 

This Week's Newsletter Highlight is: Neighborhoods -  page 225-231
Create dense, walk-able, mixed-use neighborhoods. This is just one of the six Neighborhood Implementation Strategies. Check out all six strategies!
Join us on Facebook and Twitter and be sure to read more on each specific section highlighted and give us your thoughts.
