It wasn't going to be our traditional residential neighborhoods as we had before, and urban agriculture, while a very productive and successful intervention happening in Detroit, was not the only answer, that what we had to do is look at these areas where we had significant vacancy but still had a significant number of population of what could be new, productive, innovative, and entrepreneurial uses that could stabilize those communities, where still nearly 300,000 residents lived.
No serien els nostres tradicionals barris residencials com els que teníem abans, i una agricultura urbana no era l'única resposta, mentre una intervenció molt producitva i competent estava succeïnt a Detroit, el que havíem de fer era mirar aquestes àrees on teníem un buit important però que encara teníen un nombre de població important, el que podia tenir usos nous, productius, innovadors i emprenedors que podia establitizar aquestes comunitats, a on encara vivien al voltant de 300,000 persones.
