    Detroit Metro Times Announces Merger with Real Detroit Weekly

    Media Contact: Cassandra Yardeni p 210.388.0606 c 210.475.2374 [email protected] MAY 6, 2014 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Detroit Metro Times Announces Merger With Real Detroit Weekly DETROIT — The Detroit Metro Times, Detroit’s award-winning alternative weekly media company, is pleased to announce a new venture. Real Detroit Weekly, a Detroit-based alternative weekly paper since 1999, is merging with Detroit Metro Times today, making it the largest alternative newsweekly in Michigan. The new company will maintain the Metro Times name.

Moving forward, the new company will take the –CONTINUED– best of both from Real Detroit Weekly and Metro Times — print, digital and events — and re-launch into a stronger and more balanced voice for the greater Detroit community.

    Can Public Transit Revitalize Detroit? the Qline and the People Mover”

    “Can Public Transit Revitalize Detroit? The QLine and the People Mover” John B. Sutcliffe, Sarah Cipkar and Geoffrey Alchin Department of Political Science, University of Windsor Windsor, Ontario, N9B 3P4 Email: [email protected] Paper prepared for presentation at the Canadian Political Science Association Annual Conference, Vancouver, BC. June 2019. This is a working draft. Please do not cite without permission. 1 “Can Public Transit Revitalize Detroit? The QLine and the People Mover" Introduction On May 12, 2017 a new streetcar – the QLine – began operating in Detroit, running along a 3.3- mile (6.6-mile return) route on Woodward Avenue, one of the central north-south roads in the city. This project is one example of the return to prominence of streetcars in the (re)development of American cities. Having fallen into disuse and abandonment in hundreds of American cities during the early part of the 20th century, this form of public transit has returned in many cities including, for example, Dallas, Cincinnati, Kansas City, and Portland. As streetcar services have returned to prominence, so too has the debate about their utility as a form of public transit, the function they serve in a city, and who they serve (Brown 2013; Culver 2017). These debates are evident in the case of Detroit. Proponents of the QLine – most prominently the individuals and organizations that advocated for its creation and provided the majority of the start-up capital – have praised the streetcar for acting as a spur to development, for being a forward-thinking transit system and for acting as a first step towards a comprehensive regional transit system in Metro Detroit (see M-1 Rail 2018).

The surgeon performs an orchiectomy at center. The blood-stained drapes form a mound that is both a volcano and a pyramid, images seen at the top registers of the south and north walls of the courtyard. Arrays of organs surround the surgeon’s hands: base of brain with pituitary in center; digestive organs and endocrine glands to the left; male and female reproductive structures and breast to the right. Note the duodenum to the left; a pipe in the assembly line has the same configuration. Juxtaposition of female and male repro- ductive organs reflects the androgyny of the titans on the top registers of both walls.
