ORIENTATION
All images in this catalog were composed by Master of Architecture Students at the University of Detroit Mercy School of Architecture
Philosophy of The City Research Group
The Philosophy of the City Research Group takes the city as an object of study, focusing on its political, social, epistemological, metaphysical, ethical, and environmental dimensions.
From an interdisciplinary perspective, it incorporates disciplines such as urban planning, environmental science and studies, ecology, architecture, geography, and the arts. Research questions often deal with applied philosophy and ethics, and utilize established knowledge from other areas of study. All philosophical traditions are welcome.
The group holds a conference annually, along with sessions at the American Philosophical Association’s meetings. Membership is open to anyone with an interest in the philosophical dimensions of the city.
Current officers:
Shane Epting, President Ronald R. Sundstrom, Vice President Michael Nagenborg, Secretary Jules Simon, Treasurer Michael Menser, Executive Director Mary Carmen Marcous, Executive Committee Member Víctor Manuel Hernández Márquez, Executive Committee Member Luis Ruben Diaz, Executive Committee Member

At one point in time someone or some
group thought that a highway ought to
be planned and built though the middle
of a thriving ethnic and working class
community. This decision and many
other oughtnesses have left their mark
on the current condition of the Greater
Corktown Communities. This thesis
is concerned with understanding and
analyzing the oughtnesses that have
existed in the past, that have informed
the current, and that ought to diagram
the middle future narrative of the North
Corktown Neighborhood.
