CREW MANIFESTO & LINEAGE

Turning Detroit's abandoned automotive cathedrals into the Midwest's rawest open-air museum.

Emerging in Detroit in the late 1980s and 1990s around the Dequindre Cut rail trench and the sprawling Packard Automotive Plant, Motor City 313 writers like Sintex helped transform Detroit into an international aerosol destination.
