For ten years James Robertson walked the twenty-one-mile round-trip from his Detroit home to his factory job; when his story went viral, it brought him an outpouring of attention a nd support. But what of Robertson's Detroit neighbors, likewise stuck in a blighted city without services as basic as a bus line? What they're left with, after decades of disinvestment and decline, is DIY urbanism-sweeping their own streets, maintaining public parks, planting community gardens, even acting as real estate agents and landlords for abandoned homes. This 2016 University of Minnesota Press Paperback is in very good condition. ISBN: 9780816697090 SKU: 1574575 This image is of the actual book. Show more
