residents. The PGL program is a “public-private partnership” between the city and participating businesses. The program launched in 2016 at the city’s 24-hour gas stations. However, it has now expanded to cover fast-food restaurants, strip malls, apartment complexes, and convenience stores throughout the city.
Palmer Park’s unorthodox street fabric and absence of single-family homes significantly contribute to the neighborhood’s security. Reported crimes and “ghost” routes share similar positions.
the second of three maps, strives to discover potential routes past PGL in a planned-development district surrounded by middle-class single-family homes. The number of paths reflects where the least effective use of PGL exists. The speculative neighborhood map layers Green Light businesses, surveillance radii, and ‘invisible’ routes.
The cameras installed at these locations transmit a live video feed to the Detroit Police Department’s Real Time Crime Center. In order to participate in the program, individual businesses must enter into third-party agreements, which typically involve an upfront cost of around $2,000 - $4,000 for installation, as well as ongoing monthly subscription fees ranging in the hundreds of dollars, paid to approved contractors such as Comcast and other vendors, for data plans and services.
