Lakes Urban Exchange

transformation, and address the shared challenges of
similarly-storied older industrial cities situated in the Great
Lakes watershed. Among the ranks of the GLUE coalition are community
organizers, urban planners, artists, environmentalists,
entrepreneurs, and students living and working in over 20 cities in
10 states. Become a member at GLUEspace.org to exchange information
