Many of the homes in Brightmoor were built at a time when it was technically not within the City Limits. Originally these homes were built with no code, no water, and outhouses. These were built mostly to be temporary housing by southern immigrants coming to town to work in factories. The American Planning Association has an interesting presentation on its website that explains the area with great detail. It takes about an hour to listen to. If you're interested message me and I will send you a link.
BTW I don't have a problem with the Airport's name, but I'd like to know what makes it 'International'?
