City Scapes-Detroit

I was just reading about the young people moving into the city of Detroit, attempting to get some businesses going, and living in the city too. I applaud all of them for trying, and having a vision for what they see as something viable to give back to the city. It takes a certain amont of spunk, gumtion, and hard work, but perhaps they will achieve where others have failed. In the meantime they are all enjoying the gifts the city of Detroit has to give. David and Nathan of the Burton Theatre were raised in the suburbs, really semi-rural area of Oakland county. I don't think David ever liked it much, as soon as he could drive he was finding his way to the city. After high school he lived in New Jersey, and NYC, and Chicago, always looking for a place to settle and work. He finally landed back in Detroit, attending WSU. It's going to take a lot of work to put back the city of Detroit, into some kind order. The economic mess of Detroit and all of Michigan is really tough. All I can say is good luck to all these young people for at least the effort, now we need some more entrepeneurs to step up. There is a certain amount of power in numbers.
