City of Detroit

Today marks a powerful moment in Detroit’s history. 💙

Mayor Mary Sheffield has officially been sworn in as Detroit’s 76th Mayor and first woman, stepping into leadership grounded in people, neighborhoods, and opportunity.

On her very first day in office, Mayor Sheffield made intentional stops to be with those who serve our city every day, visiting Detroit Police and Detroit Fire Department sites to personally thank our first responders for their dedication, sacrifice, and service to Detroiters.

Later, she continued the day in community at the Capuchin Soup Kitchen, serving neighbors in need and honoring the values of compassion, dignity, and service that define Detroit at its best.

A proud supporter of union and labor workers and a strong advocate for our public safety professionals, Mayor Sheffield understands that leadership starts by showing up for workers, for families, and for community.

People-centered. Community-focused. Ready to lead Detroit higher.
The work continues together. 💙

Glynn Court is an example of what we can achieve when the public and private sectors work together to address Detroit's housing needs.
Public-private partnerships allow us to stretch public dollars further and bring in expertise and innovation to preserve the soul of our neighborhoods while preparing them for the future.

Detroit is focused not only on creating affordable housing but creating it in neighborhoods where people want to live, with access to transit, schools, and opportunity.

Glynn Court, located just steps from Boston Edison, ensures that affordability is preserved even in areas where market demand is growing.
Preserving affordability doesn't mean standing still, it means investing smartly to modernize buildings while keeping rents stable.
