Demolition Means Progress: Flint, Michigan, and the Fate of the American Metropolis - Historical Studies of Urban America
Andrew R. Highsmith
In 1997, after General Motors shuttered a massive complex of factories in the gritty industrial city of Flint, Michigan, workers placed signs around the empty facility reading. This book suggests that the struggling city could not move forward to greatness until the old plants met the wrecking ball.
