    • Abstract:
      In his State of the City speech, Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan reflected on the progress made since he took office during the city's 2013 bankruptcy. He highlighted numerous accomplishments, including the revitalization of iconic symbols of Detroit's decline, such as Michigan Central Station and the Packard Plant. While Duggan has made significant strides in reversing blight and improving policing, challenges remain, such as the battle against blight, the state of the city's schools, and crime rates. The future of Duggan's political career is uncertain, but it is crucial for Detroit to continue the momentum and cooperative spirit that he has brought to the office. [Extracted from the article]
