The commercial landscape in Detroit is changing one business at a time. Open City and Model D want to help you get yours planned and up and running in a sweet location. Find out how at our next speaker series event, Nov. 16 at downtown’s Cliff Bell’s.
For new businesses sprouting in Detroit, each must ask the question: “Where is the best place for my business?” This month, the Model D Speaker Series teams up with Open City to consider the old real estate mantra — location, location, location.
Moderated by John Gallagher, business writer for the Detroit Free Press, a panel of community development experts will discuss opportunities and needs for new commerce in their neighborhoods. Panelists include Susan Mosey of the University Cultural Center Association (UCCA) and Randall Fogelman of Eastern Market Corporation.
