the one dollar homes

Thousands of homes in Detroit sit uninhabitable, we must come together to fix this. 

Brief history

The metropolis of Detroit. A great lake side city driven by its position in the automotive industry has been suffering from its dilapidated and uninhabitable homes that sit around the borders of the city. Homes that once belonged to automotive workers, before they were laid off following the collapse of the stock and housing markets post-2008.
