Annual Meeting Proceedings

Author(s): Andrea Gaffney, Gabriel Kaprielian, Jonghoon Im & Marisha Farnsworth

The farm line envisages a different type of urban renaissance for Detroit. With more than one third of the land lying vacant or underused,Detroit has witnessed an inversion of urban and rural conditions. The hinterland shave reclaimed parts of the city, and with it, a strong return to rural agrarian practices has rooted in the communities of Detroit. The Detroit Works Project proposes a new future for Detroit as a region of neighborhoods and productive landscapes. As the saying goes,“All roads lead to Rome.” In Motown, all roads lead to the central waterfront.
