Create Cool Cities
Michigan's greatest economic successes have always been tied to the creative and productive power of our cities. From the Furniture City to the Motor City to the Cereal City - the fates of our industries and cities have been intertwined from their beginnings. So the fourth way we will grow the economy is by spurring strong regional economies anchored by cool cities. Over the last year, we've begun an important dialogue about how we can stimulate the rise of such cool cities in Michigan-cities that attract these young workers and the businesses that rely on their talents.
