The SitOnIt Detroit project builds benches out of reclaimed wood sourced from abandoned Detroit homes. Each bench contains a free lending-library and is placed at inner city bus-stops and parks across Detroit. Kyle Bartell and his partner Charles Molnar have teamed up with the City of Detroit and other organizations to provide as many benches as possible.
“I am humbled to be playing a vital role in Detroit’s comeback and amazed to watch the city grow to what it is now. Detroit is big enough to matter to the world, but small enough for you to matter in it.”
