 Abstract

Detroit is a city in decline. Through strategic withdrawal into a linear city its main artery -Woodward Avenue- becomes an assembly line that holds different quarters of the city together. Strategic withdrawal also entails that parts of the city that have been demolished are rebuilt in a new context.
