The Dequindre Cut is a sub-grade railroad corridor. Originally used to link commercial manufacturing in the early 19th century, The Cut was later used as a commuter rail traveling from Pontiac to the Ren Cen. In the decline of the 80’s, The Cut was tagged by graffiti artists and home to the homeless. Now the one mile stretch from the Riverwalk to Eastern Market is being revitalized for bikes, pedestrians, and (some key words here) future mass transit.
