Detroit was once an interurban empire.
Interurban trolley lines in New England and Detroit, early 1900s.

Detroit’s Lee Plaza has windows again! 🤝
This historic piece of architecture sat hollowed out for years. It towered ominously over the west side neighborhood. And now it’s receive new windows, the facade has been largely repaired, and more to come!

A fresh chapter for one of Detroit’s overlooked architectural gems. Facade restoration of the Washington Boulevard Apartments is bringing new life to a building designed over 100 years ago by legendary architect Louis Kamper- the mind behind the Book Tower.

This can't be legal!
It takes 2x as many signatures for an Independent to get on the ballot than a Democrat or a Republican. (Spoiler: It's because they wrote the rules.)

12 years as Mayor of Detroit and I ended with an 84% approval rating.
I didn't get that by dividing people. I got it by delivering results for everyone.
That's what I'll do for Michigan.
