The Dequindre Cut is a 1.2 mile rail-trail that connects the Detroit waterfront to several residential and commercial areas. This project converted an abandoned, derelict railroad corridor into a greenway, preserving the right-of-way for transportation use and creating a valuable amenity for the city and for travelers. A $2 million federal TE award in 2004 leveraged a local match of over half a million dollars to construct the first segment of the trail. The full right-of-way is over four miles long, and an extension to the first segment is already under construction.

Hart Plaza--Detroit, Michigan
Last Sunday morning the International Marathon was held in downtown Detroit.  My husband and my son both ran the half marathon so I was set free with my camara  for an hour or so in the early morning.  In this picture you see the GM Building in the background and  in the forground is "Trancending"   a 63 ft' steel arch, a gift from the labor movement.  It depicts labor history, workers' occupations and labors vision for the future.
