I think many of you know the story of Detroit - a city in the northern United States, Michigan. In the 1950s he was one of the main engineering centers in the USA, which focused the country's largest automobile plants (Ford, General Motors, Chrysler). But then people started to leave from there, there was a shortage of high-level professionals, and the city began to die.

In such poor condition it was quite a long time, and by 2010 the city became the personification of the American crisis. However, the local builder Tony Griffin believes that Detroit can be revived, and in his speech at TED, she shares her plans for the 700,000 residents of the city.
