The Dequindre Cut is Now Open to the Public!

A Detroit railroad line that has been abandoned since the 1980s has now been turned into a 1.2 mile biking and walking path, and Detroit officials assure us that this is only the beginning, part of a grander vision.

"The Dequindre Cut is the latest in a growing network of greenways -- nonmotorized community links -- that eventually could encompass 100 miles of such trails throughout Detroit."

They even kept some of the best graffiti, and to make the Cut safer, it has security cameras and boxes.

Kudos, Detroit. Now keep going.
