In October, the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy celebrated the opening of a new stretch of the Detroit Riverwalk, the Uniroyal Promenade. Ever since, the Conservancy has been the leader in transforming the Motor City’s waterfront. Prior to 1910 or so, before automobile manufacturing shifted into high gear, Detroit cared quite a bit about its appearance. Like many cities built on industry, Detroit had a long history of manufacturing uses on its primary waterway.
