Datasets created by DETROITography

Slow Streets have the ability to improve pedestrian and bicyclist safety, as they allow for non-motorized users to share the roadway space with vehicles traveling at low speeds. They can also be used to enhance transportation equity by providing a safe space for all people, no matter their ability, to navigate neighborhood streets and access key destinations, such as restaurants, grocery or convenience stores, and educational or recreation facilities.

DETROITography archived this dataset from the DPW webpage since the proposed streets were mapped out using the Google My Maps tool rather than something more authoritative.

DETROITography has been tracking coffee shops and places in the city since 2015.

Events compiled by @gin.ebony of all 845 events with 696 performers. DETROITography cleaned up the list and extracted geolocations to map and explore the reach of the electronic music festival

DETROITography compiled these locations from the large map displayed in the Main Library lobby as well as cross checked with the about pages on the old DPL website.

DETROITography compiled Detroit locations from scanned copies of the Green Books at the NYPL Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture from the 1938, 1941, 1949, 1955, and 1963. Locations are geocoded and each year has a separate column that denotes if the location was listed or not in a given year of publication.

Locations gathered based on the content, writings, and stories included in the A Detroit Anthology from Belt Publishing edited by Anna Clark.

The UHI index in this analysis is based on a study, Sangiorgio et al. (2020), that quantifies the factors that cause developed areas to heat up. Climate Central adapted the modeling approach in Sangiorgio et al. (2020) using data on the distribution of land cover types in each city (from green space to paved areas) as well as building height and population density, to estimate how urban heat island intensity varies within each of the 44 cities included in this analysis.

There are very few national retailers located in Detroit, so as with many retail categories, home improvement and hardware options are very local and many have been around for decades. There is only one national hardware retailer, Home Depot, on W. 7 Mile Road and Meyers. Detroit housing has many quirks and specific needs as well, so you can find a number of specialty plumbers for those odd shaped fittings and more.
