A girl rides her bike down the W Golden Gate as restoration volunteers play hacky-sack in the garden across from "The White House" on Easter Sunday. Before the restoration project, children were never seen nor safe riding all the way down to W Golden Gate, now the neighborhood kids are constantly riding past.

found this little gem painted on the side of the building near Hostel Detroit. I like the spray painted DEMS. 'Bet $10,000' is referring to an actual bet Romney tried to make during the Iowa caucus (google it)

Georgia Street Community Collective; Detroit’s east side

Georgia Street Community Collective is on the East side of Detroit off of Gratiot. Mark Covington turned abandon land near his east side home into a community garden. He bought an abandon building for a $1 and turned it into a community center, which hosts summer movies, super bowl viewings and Easter egg hunts. This community collective is a great example of how a turning abandon land/structures into a garden improves the surrounding community.
