Great idea alert!

This is a wonderful idea. Why isn't it happening in Detroit, too?

To be clear, we don't need to import artwork. Just look to Tyree Guyton and the Heidelberg Project -- we already have great works of art springing up across the city. But just like New Orleans, we need the give and take. Outsiders bring creativity and energy, and the city in turn acts as a canvas and catalyst, not only for art but also for change.
