  • This area of Detroit has plenty of both good and bad. It's actually kind of crazy how close some of Detroit's nicest neighborhoods are to some of it's worst. On one street, you can have beautiful older looking homes, while on the other side of the street you'll have half burnt buildings and empty lots.

    Back in the day, Livernois was the main route southward to Grand River and onto Olympia for concerts. As soon as you got south of 8 mile the "Avenue of Fashion" signs started and the further south you went, the burned out businesses from the riots were still there. It was sketchy back then and it appears to be still.

    Chris, I absolutely love your commentary videos. In fact, I think I'm kind of addicted. I grew up Square Lake (19 mile) and Squirrel. Adams Square neighborhood.. awesome place to grow up...Graduated from lahser high School in 1991. You're taking me to areas of Detroit that I was scared to go to back in the eighties and nineties. My mothers side of the family was from Detroit. Early 1900s. Keep up the excellent work and I wish you the best in your career. PS I really need to know the music list. It is so fitting and absolutely captures me.
    Peace,
    Steve

    Two words: Elevated gardens.
    Trucking in topsoil and elevating the earth into terraces separates the growing soil from earlier property issues and run-offs. This is SOP whenever a soil base is suspect.

    It's a shame that Marygrove closed. Their athletic programs played a lot of schools in the conference they were in (Wolverine-Hoosier, a good NAIA conference) and their nonconference slate included some Mid-South Conference schools over the years.

    RE: Chemicals dumped in the ground and farming. So many pundits have been raving about American "energy independence". But FRACKING involves injecting poisonous chemicals into the ground? And the chemical mix used to extract more oil is a secret that the companies won't even tell us!
    (Plus, modern industrial agriculture has resulted in long term contamination of soils and water. Should we even be eating corn products from Iowa, where half the farm wells have unsafe levels of pesticides?)

    These oasis neighborhoods inside Detroit are always so beautiful. Being in the heavy construction trade I can assure you most of the nutrient rich soil of the farm was hauled away and common fill was used from the foundation hole for the rest of the lot. Not to mention what did the ever always so ethical city of Detroit use to backfill these former foundations? And a lot of these vacant lots I see become personal junkyards and dumps for people while they are in an area. They should need soil testing to have a community farm.

    My first consideration when looking for a new town is mass transit. But if the air and water have bad scores then it gets crossed off the list. I can't imagine growing your own tomatoes or what have you in Detroit, and especially not Flint. Even if they've cleaned up the water and replaced the lead pipes. Crime is a consideration as well to me. But I'm less likely to be a target as I'm not out at night. Gods help anyone who breaks in! I'll do everything I can to end that threat to my life even if there isn't a Castle Doctrine. I'd rather plead out to manslaughter then be put in a box.
    But if they reclaimed those vacant lots for neighborhood gardens, tested the dirt, and the water could be trusted? I'd grow my own veggies. Why not?

    • @ChrisHarden
      @ChrisHarden  Рік тому +1

      Most of these homes were built when lead paint was still considered acceptable. It’s very likely that the soil on many of these lots are contaminated for that reason alone. I left that talking point out.
      Also there was an issue a couple of years ago with filling in the recently demolished lots with contaminated soil. Even if there were testing of the soil I’d still be extremely paranoid. I wouldn’t be able to trust it.

      And if you're looking for mass transit, unless you think a very limited network of bus routes (that doesn't even extend into most suburbs) counts as mass transit, then you will be very disappointed in the metro Detroit area. Regardless of soil quality issues, crime rates, etc.
      We are completely dependent on our personal vehicles here.
