We sat down with Detroit Future City's land use and design team to discuss DFC's origins, how Detroit's vacant land relates to climate resilience and stormwater management, and how the city's master planning process seeks to balance new development with community voice.
We also explored what DFC learned from conservation groups in Cleveland, Baltimore, and Chicago while researching a Detroit-specific model. That research led to Saving for the Future, the report behind DFC's most ambitious project yet, the Detroit GreenSpace Conservancy. Hear about the two years of community engagement, funding, and hard conversations that got them here, and what success looks like five and ten years out.
