That local residents have come up with the “Remix of the Six” saying on their own is important to Dr. Geneva J. Williams, and demonstrates a buy-in of the corridor’s redevelopment plans. Even the word “remix” is important, its connotations suggesting that what’s happening on 6 Mile is adding to what’s already there, not reinventing it or making it unrecognizable. […] “Six Mile splits Bagley and Fitzgerald, which are overwhelmingly Black neighborhoods. We really wanted this project [7400 W. McNichols] to reflect the neighborhood,” Chase Cantrell says.
