It’s been a dream of ours to see a Better Block project take shape in Detroit, and as part of the 2012 Detroit Design Festival, a team is assembled to begin setting to work. On September 22nd and 23rd, volunteers from the US Green Building Council and Wayne State University will help reshape a block with “complete street” infrastructure, placemaking initiatives and more.
To learn more about the project visit the group’s website at http://betterblockdetroit.tumblr.com/
For anyone interested in volunteering, a collaborative sign-up sheet has been posted here.
