Abstract
America's cities have been deteriorating for the past 60 years. City planners,
developers, companies and researchers have taken it upon themselves to breathe new life
into the dying cities. The main purpose for urban revitalization is to bring people back to
the cities to live, work and play. To achieve this goal, cities across America are
undergoing changes in their infrastructure, laws and skylines. Detroit is a city currently
going through some of these changes in order to save itself from decades of decay. Not
all revitalization efforts are successful. The amount of success is determined by the
willingness of residents, companies and local government to cooperate in developing a
strategy to attack the problems of the city.
