The Community Development and Policy Studies (CDPS) Division of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago has undertaken a new project that we call the Industrial Cities Initiative. Through this Initiative, we hope to identify policies and programs that promote (or inhibit) economic growth and vitality in industrial cities.
