A Rebuilt Detroit neighborhood area...in my eyes

My new Detroit community would be a completely new neighborhood filled with new buildings furnished and supplied my donations by fortunate ones and companies, along with labor through volunteers and my inhabitants.
The city layout would be a series of rings.
The middle would be the community center. Where neighborhood meetings would take place, along with an area dedicated to physical health (gyms, tracks, ect.)
In between each municipal "ring" would be a ring of residential living.
Third ring would be the neighbor hood schools and parks, so that they will be safe and fully visual to parents and authorities alike.
Fifth ring would be consistant with commericial buildings, so that the neighbor economy will be healthy.
Seventh would be my last ring which would include the area for the places of worship, so that the neighborhood will be healthy not just finanicially and physically, but also spritually.
The housing would be condo style living becuase I want to encourage positive interaction between neighbors. My coummity will be marketed for familys and married couples alike. It will be a family atmosphere.
The neighborhood would be gated because of the family atmosphere protective is a premium. The layout will help ensure my vision will become a reality because it encourages such a community.

Tour Detroit with me

If you want to see the real Detroit, let me the real tour...It is my believe that when you want to experiance a new city you must take in the food or restuants of the area. There is no better way to meet people and get an ideal of atmosphere of the new area you in. Also there is no better was to experiance more diversity of an area than its places of food. Here are my top five spots and why.
1) Slows BBQ - Detroit-By far and away the best BBQ food in the area, probably the this hemisphere. Try the BBQ chicken it is amazing. Trust me.
2) Bangkok 96- Dearborn - The best hole in the wall Thai food joint in the area, a good place to enjoy some real quality Thai food...you have to have the tom yum soup...great.
3) Mosiac - Greektown - A trendy authentic greek resturant that offers a after hours bar for those who like to party.
4) Saltwater- MGM Casino Detroit- A Michael Mena resturant (so it's very expensive) but worth the price if you enjoy seafood as I do, located in a casino so you can go gamble, relax for a drink, or hit the club scene. Whatever you feel like.
5) River Cafe'-Renaissance Center (At the top)- Over looking the landscape of Detroit it scenery alone is worth the high price of the food. Good food and a clear night make it a must see.

There you have it the top place we would go. Give me a call.
