who paid for the q line in detroit
QLine In December 2011, city and state leaders announced a plan to offer bus rapid transit service for the city and metropolitan area instead of light rail as had previously been proposed. Soon afterwards, M-1 Rail, a consortium of private and public businesses and institutions in the region, announced the plan for a 3.3-mile-long (5.3Â km) streetcar line along part of the same route as the cancelled light rail plan, connecting the downtown Detroit People Mover to the Amtrak railway station in New Center and the proposed SEMCOG commuter rail system. Quicken Loans bought the naming rights to the line, and announced the name in March 2016.[5]
Chambers Brothers (gang) In the 1991 film, New Jack City, the character, Nino Brown and his associates, were largely based on the real life Detroit gang The Chambers Brothers. As in the movie, The Chambers Brothers were also known for taking over an apartment complex known as "The Boulevard" on E. Ferry St. in Detroit (name was changed to "The Carter" in the film), which was used to house their drug selling operations.
