“Tale of two cities” in Detroit is “stark” #MarkBinelli AMEN! #ELGL #Detroit — John McCarter (@jmccarter112) April 23, 2014

“Some of the old demographics are beginning to break down. And as that happens there’s more hope of regional cooperation.” – #MarkBinelli — Ben Kittelson (@benkittelson56) April 23, 2014
The amount of vacant land in #Detroit could fit the entire city of Paris. Interesting factoid from Mark Binelli on today’s #ELGL webinar.

“One of the things that will help #Detroit in the long run is the low barrier to entry.” – #MarkBinelli #ELGL — Ben Kittelson (@benkittelson56) April 23, 2014
.@KevynOrr is the #Detroit emergency manager; allowed under MI state law. Binelli isn’t completely sold on the concept, though. #ELGL
