2548 Field Street, located in the historic Islandview neighborhood, was built in 1907. It was designed by Peter Dederichs, a prolific local architect better known for his many church commissions during the late 19th/early 20th century. Colonial Revival with a turret?!

Icewear Vezzo Celebrates the "Class of 2024" in This 'Live From The 6' Video
Tumblr media
Icewear Vezzo explores how the circumstances of his birth forced him to learn how to become an expert hustler on his new album Live From The 6. The album kicks off with the triumphant banger, "Class Of 2024," which recently received a new music video. Produced by Vezzo's frequent collaborator Beats By Taz, is an ice cold speaker-knocker that is a perfect fit for the rhymer's raspy flow. The 6 Mile native weaves between active 808s, smooth electric keys, and cascading synths to flex on how far he's come: "Ion give a f*ck what you lames think/I ain't gotta talk, let my chain speak," he intones. In the video, directed by Diego and Vezzo himself, the Iced Up Records CEO takes a trip to a local high school, as he poses for yearbook photos and causes chaos in a classroom. 
"Class of 2024" is one of many highlights from Live From The 6, Vezzo's highly-anticipated new album. Live From The 6 is a down-and-dirty collection of sinister street stories, alternating raw hustler's anthems that elucidate the mindset required to escape rough circumstances with thoughtful reflections on the toll life on the streets take on those who make it out. The album features appearances from DaBaby (on recent single "Perfect") and YTB Fatt (on street hit "Come Outside"), and rolls out the red carpet for Vezzo's fellow 6 Mile natives: Detroit star Babyface Ray, and Iced Up Records signee Chuckie CEO. The culmination of Vezzo's evolution from street-level hustler to a global ambassador for Detroit rap, Live From The 6 is available everywhere via Iced Up Records/Quality Control Music.

With limitless ambition and the work ethic to achieve his every desire, it's only a matter of time before Icewear Vezzo takes over the game.

🌱🌿 For plant enthusiast Jocelyn Ho, what started off as a hobby during the 2020 COVID-19 shutdown has grown into more than what she expected. Known as the Rare Plant Fairy, Ho, 36, quickly gained a worldwide following after she opened a tropical plant nursery inside of an old truck warehouse on Detroit’s east side.

Map: New Detroit City Council Districts for 2025
During their vote on February 6, the Detroit City Council swiftly selected “Option 6.” It was the last requested council redistricting map option that creates the least amount of change, but meets the bare minimum of the redistricting requirements for population distribution. The most populous, District 1, will still have 8% more people than the least populous District 3. I’m not sure that the…

Years before he was a Civil War hero and, eventually, President of the United States, Ulysses S. Grant was a young Army officer stationed in Detroit. From 1849-50, Ulysses lived with his wife, Julia, in this modest Greek Revival abode. The home was built in 1837 and originally located at 253 East Fort Street, between Rivard and Russell. That area would come to be known as Black Bottom, the fabled, predominantly African-American neighborhood that was razed to make way for the Lafayette Park development in the 1950s. In 1936, threatened with demolition, the Michigan Mutal Liability Company purchased the home and relocated to the now-former Michigan State Fairgrounds, where it was presented as a gift to the state. For decades, the Grant home was decorated in period furnishings and open to the public. However, since the Michigan State Fair ended its run at the State Fairgrounds in 2008, the historic structure sat in a state of neglect. In 2018, it was announced that the structure would yet again be moved, this time to the Eastern Market, close to its original location. In the summer of 2020, the landmarks was cut in half horizontally and relocated to the corner of Orleans and Wilkins streets, near the Dequindre Cut. Plans are to rehabilitate the home and transform it into an education/resource center. Donations to the project can be made at michiganhistory.org. #Detroit #Eastside #EasternMarket #BlackBottomDetroit #LafayettePark #GreekRevival #UlyssesSGrant #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #deserve2preserve #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter #SavingPlaces (at Eastern Market) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmrduvRLQBj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Umbrella Pharmaceuticals - Chapter 34
He had chosen Raccoon City for its isolation, its poverty, its vibrant decadence. It was a wasteland, terra nullius[1]; a chimera, neither an industrial centre nor a small town in the foothills of the Appalachians. It was a want and I can't; a kind of American East End[2].
He landed there on the recommendation of a good old Californian friend. This friend, who knew of Oswell’s eternal desire to found his Motor City [3], recommended the Midwest because of its accelerated post-war boom. Cities such as Detroit had expanded relentlessly, and others such as Gary had sprung up like mushrooms. In the late 1950s, he opened the first Anzec Pharma plant in Detroit. Twenty years later, the Umbrella Pharmaceuticals plant closed due to the oil crisis of the early 1970s and the ongoing outsourcing of manufacturing to the Third World, a process Oswell hoped would be completed with Thatcher's impending election victory. Because of its terrible location and limited industrialisation, Raccoon City participated in the birth of the Rust Belt [4], becoming one of the few towns whose mayoralty was sold to foreign and domestic investors for four pounds. This attracted Oswell like a moth to a fly lamp. He took over the town hall and in less than five years, subverting the law, had his country house and training centre built. The financial boost he brought, in return for his guaranteed interference in the council, meant more jobs, more houses and more middle-class families happy with their bland lifestyles, less crime, fewer vagrants and well-fed bellies thanks to co-optation and bribery. In short, his plan had worked.
But there was another problem. The question of the Progenitor. It all fitted into the jigsaw of interpersonal relationships, favours and shell companies that would be used to carry out the second phase. With the approval of the City Council and the dismissal of the police, the disappearance of a handful of junkies, prostitutes, beggars and poor Whites, Blacks, Latinos and Asians would not attract attention if it was done with care and wisdom. He had already chosen his first “hotbed”: Eastside, the city's poorest area. A rattrap of dilapidated housing, half-ruined squats and caravan parks. Its residents struggled against the common ills of unemployment and drug addiction, the wilful incompetence of the authorities, the total neglect of the federal government and an unbearable desperation. In this situation, there was one problem: rats, and he proposed the solution: a fumigation company. They would either knock on the door or find an unsuspecting person driving a large, well-equipped van. The training centre was half an hour away. Sick, crippled or healthy: it didn’t matter. Marcus would process the “commodity” and some of it would be diverted to Spencer Mansion. If it worked, the next step would be Europe.
That was what had been agreed.
[1] Literally Latin for “no man's land”.
[2] The East End of London, often referred to within the London area simply as the East End, is the historic core of wider East London, east of the Roman and medieval walls of the City of London and north of the River Thames. The area was notorious for its deep poverty, overcrowding and associated social problems.
[3] Detroit's nickname, in the sense of an industrial and corporate city.
[4] The term "Rust Belt" refers to the impact of deindustrialization, economic decline, population loss, and urban decay on these regions attributable to the shrinking industrial sector especially including steelmaking, automobile manufacturing, and coal mining.
