About Dexter-Linwood
Dexter-Linwood is a historic neighborhood located on Detroit’s west side, known for its early 20th-century architecture and deep community roots. The area features a variety of housing styles, including American Foursquares, Dutch Colonials, and Colonial Revivals, many built between the 1910s and 1950s.
The neighborhood is home to Central High School, Detroit’s oldest high school, and the Life Remodeled Community Innovation Center, housed in the former Durfee Elementary-Middle School.
Community initiatives like the Dexter-Linwood Cordon project have transformed vacant lots into gardens, walking paths, and gathering spaces, reflecting residents’ commitment to revitalization.
While challenges such as high vacancy rates and economic disparities exist, Dexter-Linwood’s proximity to downtown, Wayne State University, and the historic Boston-Edison district positions it for continued growth and investment.
