Topic: Do you live in a dead, burnt-out, post-industrial, rusted-out Midwestern city?

Did your major, perchance, try to revitalize the city by building a barren, cement Riveralk?

I have been to several of these cities for work. I work almost exclusively in the Midwest and South and I see this phenomenon all the time. This or idiots trying to turn it into a Silicon Valley, as if that outcome is desirable.

The smart cities look to link small businesses to a university to some incubators and the economic development office. See Pittsburgh or North Carolina.

No school? Go light industrial or warehouse.
