  • 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 Please do not cite without permission. 1 “Can Public Transit Revitalize Detroit?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).

  • Moving Forward at the Detroit Historical Society!
    1 WINTER 2018 Moving Forward at the Detroit Historical Society! At the Detroit Historical Society, 2017 has been a time of transformation. Three years of work on Detroit 67: Looking Back to Move Forward came to fruition this year, and the efforts that went into it led us to adopt a new model for engaging the public in creating programming and exhibitions in our museums. Our work is stronger for it, as evidenced by positive reviews, awards and steady increases in visitor numbers driven by the Detroit 67: Perspectives exhibition. Most importantly, however, our organization changed from the inside out. Our model for engagement, Engage, Refect, Act (ERA), incorporates a three-step process for commencing work on new programs and exhibitions at our museums: engage the community, refect on what we learn and inspire visitors to action based on the relevance of history to today. We are committed to applying this model internally and externally as we work to tell Detroit’s stories and why they matter. That means that we are engaging the talents of our staff across departments to strengthen and streamline our work in the same way that we are engaging the public and other cultural institutions to inform upcoming programs and exhibits. In October, the Detroit Historical Society and our partners at the Detroit Institute of Arts and the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History were honored with the Michigan Museum Association’s 2017 Peninsulas Prize in recognition of our unique collaboration on the Detroit 67 project. This was wonderful evidence of the transformational power of the ERA model.

  • Dear Maire Families, We Welcomed
    MAIRE ELEMENTARY ● Sonja Franchett, Principal Each and Every Child, Each and Every Day March 25, 2015 Dear Maire Families, We welcomed Spring this year with our amazing Maire Fair. This whole-school carnival event represented almost 100% participation of our Maire students and families. The funds raised, along with our upcoming Parent Auction on May 2nd, will be spread out over the next three years to purchase building improvements, classroom and technology supplies, assembly and curriculum enrichment opportunities, and outside/garden/playground upgrades. Our entire Maire Staff thanks the parents and PTO folks who put forth tremendous effort in making our fundraising efforts both fun and successful. Along with our Carnival success, students and teachers at Maire have been engaged and learning in a wide variety of projects and enrichment experiences this past month. Fifth graders have been researching countries throughout the world to prepare for their EXPO projects and to create presentations about the Spanish speaking world. Fourth graders visited the capitol at Lansing, and learned about people’s differences in a day-long “Disability Awareness” workshop. They also created their own businesses and marketed and tested their own vehicles in a STEM engineering project facilitated by Ms. Moir and some of our automotive engineering parents. Second graders have been studying about local businesses, and will begin research of famous people for the Living Museum. Third grade students have been honing their Michigan history skills, and will begin research about famous Michigan products for a Made in Michigan project. First graders and kindergarteners are continuing to grow their writing and reading skills during Readers and Writers Workshop every day! During lunchtime enrichment students are choosing to write their own creative plays, work with ceramics, grow their knitting skills, sing in lunch choir, and learn about geography and cultures of the world in the Passport Club.

  • 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.
