In April, teenagers Lillie Reynolds-Smith & Mouley Yusef Sabour shared their observations & analysis of Streets & Getting Around in Cody Rouge & Warrendale on Detroit’s west side, challenging city government, resident organizations, and our design team to do something about it (link for full video in bio). This Saturday 8/24 2-6 pm at the Brennan Pool building in Rouge Park (21415 Plymouth), come see first draft concept designs that architects, landscape architects, urban designers, financial analysts & other professionals from @hectorurbandesign @mmarshalldesign @quinnevansarchitects @hingecollective @norman_m_archive have created with their collaboration for the Cody Rouge & Warrendale Neighborhood Framework.
As Yusef would say, the project Organizational Steering Committee is also "a little bit important," including @codyrougecaa @joysouthfieldcdc @accesscommunity @myicd, Joy Community Association, Franklin Park Neighborhood Association, Warren Avenue Community Organization, Warrendale Community Organization, Cody Rouge Faith Alliance, Detroit District 7 & @friendsofrougepark
Since July, a group of west side young people have been working together with educators Denis Rochac, Marcellus Armstrong & University of Orange @uoforange to develop their version of youth urbanism. Join them tomorrow, Wednesday August 21, 5-7 pm for their final event, Detroit Youth Urbanism Summit 2019!

As part of the year-long Cody Rouge & Warrendale Youth-Centric Neighborhood Framework, 21 teenagers from the area worked for six weeks to learn about their city and the neighborhood. To share what they have learned, they have planned & produced the “Detroit Youth Urbanism Summit 2019 Taking Us Back,” an event to bring together young people from the neighborhood and others interested in our city and the well-being of youth. “Taking Us Back” will be an evening of youth-led events including performances, group activities, and more.

Over a sizzling sunny June 29 on Detroit's west side, residents & groups from across Warrendale & Cody Rouge came together to build picnic tables, which were then distributed to sitting areas created by Evergreen Block Club, Westwood Block Club, Warrendale Community Organization, Joy Community Association, and the @joysouthfieldcdc
Farmer's Market.
Salute to our brave leader in the effort @publicworkshop & all who made the event possible: @joysouthfieldcdc @accesscommunity @brightmoormakerspace @sunbridgecollaborative @nicktobier @ordinaryclothingbrand @sitonitdetroit
