Detroit's West Riverfront:
Design Charrette 2004

Taubman College's annual Detroit urban design charrette was held January 9–12, 2004. The focus of the charrette was on the western portion of downtown Detroit's riverfront, from the Civic Center at Hart Plaza to the Ambassador Bridge. This site complemented the prior year's study of the east riverfront, and helped support the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy’s efforts to create a master plan for the area.

The public presentation of results took place Monday, January 12, at the Fort Street Presbyterian Church in Detroit.
