The New York Times published a story by Gordon Young on Thursday about Flint and the renovation work being done in Carriage Town.
The headline, 'Faded Glory, Polishing Flint's Jewels' discusses the historic preservation and renewal going on in Flint. The article also has a slideshow, showing the interiors and exteriors of some of the featured homes and businesses.
Here's an excerpt from the story:
"While many Flint neighborhoods feel all but abandoned, in Carriage Town home ownership has increased 10 percent over the last decade, according to Census data."
Gordon Young, the writer of the New York Times piece, will be on NPR in Detroit (listen live) to talk about his story. He's scheduled to be on between 2 and 2:30 p.m. this afternoon.
