Clip | 3m 56s

Having the help of This Old House TV and heaps of community assistance will be the keys to an amazing renovation when new episodes kick off on March 31. Viewers will learn about what makes Detroit a city prime for restoration: The Motor City works hard. “This is a community of hustle and muscle and hard work and digging in,” homeowner Frank Polk says. “I think this project represents that."
