==History==
Developer Burt Eddy Taylor bought of land, located one mile (1.6 km) away from Detroit's city limits at the time, in 1921.〔 Taylor created Brightmoor as a planned community of inexpensive housing for migrants from the Southern United States in the early 1920s.〔Carlisle, John (Detroitblogger John). "(String theory )." ''Metro Times''. November 11, 2009. Retrieved November 12, 2009.〕〔Archambault, Dennis. "(Brightmoor: 'Feisty' Neighbors Use Hope, Innovation to Face Struggles )." ''Model d''. Tuesday September 29, 2009. Retrieved November 12, 2009.〕 The subdivision opened in 1922. B.E. Taylor recruited workers from Appalachia with the lure of employment at one of Detroit's expanding automobile manufacturing plants. An additional was added to the community between 1923 and 1924.〔〔 Most of the residents worked in the automobile industry.〔 ''Model d'' has described Brightmoor a neighborhood where families could own a house and live in modest comfort.〔 The City of Detroit annexed Brightmoor in 1926.〔 The houses were intended as low cost mass-produced single-family housing. At the time of the community's opening, many residents lived in temporary shantytowns awaiting for the completion of their permanent houses.〔Hackney, Suzette and Kristi Tanner. "(How Brightmoor became a hot spot for homicides )." ''Detroit Free Press''. November 14, 2011. Retrieved May 12, 2012.〕
In a 40-year period until 2011, the number of residents in Brightmoor decreased. Crime appearing in the 1990s and 2000s caused additional residents to leave. In 2011 Suzette Hackney and Kristi Tanner of the ''Detroit Free Press'' said that the area, "over decades, transformed from a thriving working-class neighborhood to one of abandoned homes and businesses, and now one that is hoping to come back, mostly through private-sector efforts."〔 In 2009 John Carlisle (DetroitBlogger John) of the ''Metro Times'' said "Ghetto stereotypes thrive here — broad-daylight drug dealing, pre-teen pregnancies, long-gone or never-known fathers, and houses falling apart or giving way to vacant lots."〔
In June 2013 the nonprofit organization Detroit Blight Authority began a cleanup effort of trash from a fourteen city block area, bounded by Lyndon, West Outer Drive, and Trinity Streets and with Eaton Avenue splitting the area laterally. 500 residential lots are located in the area cleaned by the Detroit Blight Authority. The cleanup zone had about 70 vacant structures, with several houses that had received damages from burns and those ransacked by intruders.〔"(One of Detroit's largest private blight-cleanup blitzes gets under way in Brightmoor )." ''Detroit Free Press''. July 1, 2013. Retrieved on July 11, 2013.〕 The authority, with the Detroit Rescue Mission Ministries and Mitch Albom Charities, organized the Blight Elimination — 100 Houses Event in August 2013.〔"()."
