Student kudos!
Kudos to… Emily Kutil (MSP12), adjunct professor at the University of Detroit Mercy School of Architecture and a freelance designer, has just created an exhibition about Detroit’s Black Bottom neighborhood that is currently on display at the Detroit Public Library. “Black Bottom Street View” is a photography show documenting entire streets and avenues in the African-American district that fell victim to urban “renewal” and the wrecking ball starting in the 1950s, leveled to make room for Lafayette Park and other developments on the city’s near-east side.
