Description: The Bloody Run Creek Greenway Redevelopment Project, announced in 2011, has been a big factor in making Detroit the world's first city to turn the theory of landscape urbanism into a reality. Thirteen years after Van Valkenburgh makes those remarks, the city is dotted with mixed residential, commercial, and industrial clusters; these are linked by wilderness and barbered green spaces, including farms and forests grown for biomass to feed neighborhood-based gasification units that reduce reliance on the city's energy grid.
