"Detroit Creative City - Urban Manufacturing" is a project that, starting from the study of the complex history of Detroit, aims to find a possible solution to one of its many crucial challenges. The goal is to give new life to one of the many industrial architectures abandoned in the second half of the 1900s, a rebirth in line with the ideals of the Maker Movement and Creative Cities, which are among the most active revitalization strands in the city. After 1950, Detroit went from being the fourth most populous city in the US, the pulsating heart of automobile production, the "Motor City", to being abandoned by more than half of its population, shrinking and sinking until declaring bankruptcy in 2013.
