Today's show is in three parts.

Robin Runyan from Urbanize Detroit joins us today to give a bit of an update on development stories around town and answer a listener question. Can the Belle Isle Boathouse be saved? We discuss. We talk about what could be Detroit's icon of incompletion, the long-stalled Perfecting Church project at Seven Mile and Woodward. There's a new deal to get it going, but community (and our) skepticism after 20 years of lack of progress is high. A pair of buildings in Corktown that have sat vacant for years have been sold, raising hopes they'd be redeveloped. Robin shares the details and we discuss. A new affordable housing project kicks off in Southwest Detroit on Michigan Avenue. Robin has three big development themes for 2023. We get into them and why they matter.
