Model D - Detroit House: $100. Bold New Ideas for the City: Priceless.
March 17, 2009
The phone rings again and again and again. It hardly ever stops. On Gina Reichert's desk in the Design 99 shop, in Mitch Cope's pocket as he walks around his newly-acquired properties in the just-north-of-Hamtramck neighborhood where the couple lives, the phone keeps ringing.
Who's calling? It's ABC's "20/20," National Public Radio, the Detroit News. It's researchers from the Netherlands, beekeepers from Berlin, a project collaborator from Sweden, artists from Chicago via San Francisco who will be closing on one of those properties this month.
