  • Growing Detroit's African-American Middle
    v GROWING DETROIT’S AFRICAN-AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS THE OPPORTUNITY FOR A PROSPEROUS DETROIT GROWING DETROIT’S AFRICAN-AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS THE OPPORTUNITY FOR A PROSPEROUS DETROIT Photography Tafari Stevenson-Howard 1st Printing: February 2019 GROWING DETROIT’S AFRICAN-AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS THE OPPORTUNITY FOR A PROSPEROUS DETROIT 4 FOREWORD Foreword There’s a simple, universal concept concerning economic, social and educational growth that must be front of mind in planning about enlarging the black middle class: Authentic development and growth require deliberate investment. If we want to see more black people enter the middle class, we must invest in endeavors and interventions that lead to better- paying jobs, affordable housing, efficient transportation and effective schools. Though these amenities will attract middle- class people back to Detroit, the focus on development must be directed at uplifting a greater percentage of current residents so that they have the necessary tools to enter the middle class. Meaning, growing the black middle class in Detroit should not result from pushing low-income people out of the city. One may think a strategy to attract people back into to the city should take priority. White and middle-class flight significantly influenced the concentrations of families who make less than $50,000 in the suburbs (30 percent) and in Detroit (75 percent), according to findings in Detroit Future City’s “139 Square Miles” report. Bringing suburbanites back into the city would alter these percentages, and we most certainly want conditions that are attractive to all middle- class families. However, we also don’t want to return to the realities where the devaluing of low-income and black people hastened the flight to the suburbs.

    DETROIT'S MILWAUKEE JUNCTION SURVEY HAER MI-416 Milwaukee Junction HAER MI-416 Detroit Michigan WRITTEN HISTORICAL AND DESCRIPTIVE DATA FIELD RECORDS HISTORIC AMERICAN ENGINEERING RECORD National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior 1849 C Street NW Washington, DC 20240-0001 HISTORIC AMERICAN ENGINEERING RECORD DETROIT’S MILWAUKEE JUNCTION SURVEY HAER MI-416 Location: Milwaukee Junction, Detroit, Michigan The survey boundaries are Woodward Avenue on the west and St. Aubin on the east. The southern boundary is marked by the Grand Trunk Western railroad line, which runs just south of East Baltimore from Woodward past St. Aubin. The northern boundary of the survey starts on the west end at East Grand Boulevard, runs east along the boulevard to Russell, moves north along Russell to Euclid, and extends east along Euclid to St. Aubin. Significance: The area known as Milwaukee Junction, located just north of Detroit’s city center, was a center of commercial and industrial activity for more than a century. Milwaukee Junction served, if not as the birthplace of American automobile manufacturing, then as its nursery. In addition to the Ford Motor Company and General Motors, many early auto manufacturers and their support services (especially body manufacturers like the Fisher Brothers, C.R. Wilson, and Trippensee Auto Body) were also located in the area, probably because of the proximity of the railroads. Historians: Kenneth Shepherd and Richard Sucré, 2003 Project Information: The Historic American Engineering Record conducted a survey of Detroit’s Milwaukee Junction, a center of auto and related industrial production, in summer 2003. The City of Detroit and the city’s Historic Designation Advisory Board sponsored the survey.

  • Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund (MNRTF) Grants for 5 Active Or Completed Projects
    The COUNTY ALCONA MICHIGAN NATURAL RESOURCES TRUST FUND was established under the Kammer Recreational Land Trust Fund Act of 1976 to provide a permanent funding source for the public acquisition of land for resource protection and public outdoor recreation. Funding is provided by revenue derived from royalties on the sale and lease of state-owned oil, gas and mineral rights. This landmark piece of legislation came to fruition thanks to the collaborative efforts of the Michigan Oil and Gas Association, Michigan United Conservation Clubs and state legislators on behalf of all Michigan citizens. The MNRTF has contributed immeasurably to protecting our state’s natural beauty and helped paved the way for wise and prudent development of our state’s abundant energy resources. To date, the MNRTF has awarded over $1.1 billion in grants to Michigan’s state and local parks, waterways, trails and nature preserves throughout all 83 counties. Of this total, $245 million has been invested in trails. In excess of 1,000 public parks have been acquired and / or developed. Other projects funded include ball fields, tennis courts, trailheads, restrooms and other amenities, for a total of just under 2,500 MNRTF-assisted projects since 1976. ALCONA COUNTY Alcona County has received $644,100 in Michigan Natural Resources Trust Fund (MNRTF) grants for 5 active or completed projects.

  • Palmer Woods Centennial Gala
    CELEBRATE! PALMER WOODS CENTENNIAL GALA Detroit Golf Club Saturday, September 19, 2015 Palmer Woods Centennial Logos s part of the Palmer Woods 100-Year Celebration, the Palmer Woods Centennial Committee sponsored a design competition to create a new visual logo for the Aneighborhood’s Centennial year. Artists were invited to submit their vision for a Centennial logo. The following artists submitted the winning logos: PHIL LEWIS – 1st Place Winner The winning logo was conceived by Phil Lewis, a lifelong Detroiter, Cass Tech graduate and recipient of a BFA from the Center for Creative Studies majoring in Illustration. “My mother used to say I was born with a paintbrush in my hand. Drawing was an escape for me,” remarks Phil. His natural ability was honed at Cass Tech under the tutelage of well known teachers such as Dr. Cledie Taylor, Marian Stephens and Irving Berg. Entering the contest to design a logo in celebration of the Palmer Woods Centennial was an easy decision for Phil. He loves the city of Detroit and considers Palmer Woods one of Detroit’s jewels. Even though he does not live in the neighborhood, he is good friends with residents and very aware of the community. Phil’s logo design was inspired by the beauty, history and character of the homes. Consequently, his logo effectively captures the spirit of our strong and beautiful community. Currently Phil is the owner of Phil Lewis Studio and a Digital Content Artist for MRM McCann Advertising. As the winning artist for the neighborhood contest, Phil’s logo is featured on banners that are be placed on light posts within and along the perimeter of the neighborhood.
