ICUE
BEGAN WITH A SUMMER PROGRAM IN 1999, CONSISTS OF WORKSHOPS
AND SYMPOSIA. IN CLOSE COLLABORATION WITH COMMUNITY ENTREPRENEURS
AND ORGANIZATIONS THE WORKSHOPS UNDERTOOK THE DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION
OF SPECIAL PROJECTS IN OUR STUDY AREA. THESE PROJECTS MARK
THE BEGINNING OF A PLANNED LONG-TERM COMMITMENT TO THE CITY
OF DETROIT AND, IN PARTICULAR, TO DETROIT'S NEAR EAST SIDE
COMMUNITY. IN ADDITION TO THESE REALIZED WORKS,
ICUE HAS BEGAN

ECONOMIC, AND SOCIAL LANDSCAPE. THIS WORK IS TO AGGREGATE
A CRITICAL PORTRAIT OF THE CITY'S RESOURCES AND HISTORY.
