NCC maintains the public spaces in the area through litter removal,
an annual flower and landscaping program, holiday lighting, banners, and
tree maintenance. The NCC works very closely with the Detroit Police
Department 13th Precinct and the New Center Patrol to keep New Center
one of the safest neighborhoods in Detroit.
