Urban Revitalization
The Urban Revitalization Division houses the Cool Cities and the Cities of Promise - initiatives of Governor Jennifer Granholm created to address the issues so central to the transformation of Michigan’s economy.  The goals of this division are to work with local and state agency partners to improve quality of life, and create vibrant urban centers and thriving downtowns across our state.

The Michigan Cities of Promise is an interagency initiative that is working to rekindle and encourage hope for eight of Michigan’s most vulnerable cities - Benton Harbor, Detroit, Flint, Hamtramck, Highland Park, Muskegon Heights, Pontiac, and Saginaw.  It is a whole cloth, quality of life initiative, that aims to reduce poverty, and increase community and economic development. 

The Michigan Cool Cities Initiative is an urban strategy to revitalize Michigan’s cities by attracting the talent and jobs of the emerging economy.  It is a collaborative model for economic engagement and community revitalization.
