    • Abstract:
      The article discusses the problems faced by business groups in the market at the Mexicantown International Welcome Center in Detroit, Michigan. The blame is falling on the market owner's financial and legal problems, stagnant economy, poor construction and the nearby interchange construction project that has restricted access to the area. Restaurateur Jordi Carbonell's cafe is the lone occupied space inside the market and Mexicantown Community Development Corp. is the agency in question.
