  • New Attitude
    New Attitude VOLUME 8 ISSUE 2 FEBRUARY 2018 Pure Detroit opens in Cobo Center for the auto show Pure Detroit has grown from the ground up, thanks to community support for 20 years. The first Pure Detroit store opened on Thanksgiving Day in 1998 in the David Whitney Building downtown. Since then, Pure Detroit has grown to five locations, each located in landmark Detroit buildings: the Fisher Building, the Guardian Building, the GM Renaissance Center, the Strathmore, and the Belle Isle Aquarium. “A Pure Detroit Shop on the Cobo Center concourse, open for all events, will connect visitors from all over the world to the culture and hospitality of Detroit,” said Claude Molinari, general manager of Cobo Center. “It is another big step in making our customers feel that Cobo is ‘Centered Around You,’ and immersing them in our mission to deliver outstanding event experiences.” Pure Detroit's mission is multi-faceted. As urbanists, they strive to help create vibrant ground-level retail activ- ity in downtown Detroit. As proprietors, they seek to provide a touching point for residents and visitors to the city for Detroit's rich history and contemporary culture. Cobo Center Bees Hunker Down for the Winter on the Green Roof Honey bees in the Cobo Center hives adjacent to the green roof prepare for winter by gathering a surplus of honey and pollen. They form a big group hug (or a winter cluster) to keep the queen warm once temps start to drop. The honey bees use this group hug to keep the center around 85 degrees! The heat is created by the bees vibrating their wing muscles.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Minnesota Digital Conservancy The Detroit Medical Center: Race and Renewal in the Motor City A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Jessica Nickrand IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Advisor: Dominique Tobbell, PhD May 2019 © 2019 Jessica Nickrand Acknowledgements It is possible that these acknowledgements will be the longest section of this entire dissertation. I was in graduate school for a whole decade, and that requires an awful lot of thanks. But beyond my time in graduate school, this work is really a culmination of the guidance and generosity of so many people throughout my life, and I need to take this opportunity to thank and acknowledge all of them. First, I am of course indebted to the University of Minnesota and the Program in the History of Science, Technology, and Medicine for taking the chance on this first- generation college kid with a lip ring so many years ago. My adviser, Dominique Tobbell, challenged me to produce the best work I could, and her intellectual leadership and guidance resulted in the scholar I am today. Especially toward the end of this journey, she provided prompt feedback and incredible access, and helped me “climb the mountain” and get this thing done. I will forever be grateful for her support. Jennifer Gunn served as a co-adviser for the beginning part of this work, and is the Chair of my committee, and has been such a force of good in my career as a historian.
