From Neighborhoods to the Skyline: Pierre Roberson on Framework E and Detroit’s Next Chapter

“Detroit is big time—and it’s our time to lead.” That energy anchors this Detroit is Different conversation with Pierre Roberson, Co-Founder and Architect at Framework E, recorded live at the 2026 Detroit Policy Conference and hosted by Erika Monaé Lewis. Pierre moves through his Detroit-rooted journey with pride—naming neighborhoods, aunties, mentors, and moments that shaped him—while declaring, “We’re taking over,” not with ego, but with responsibility. He reflects on the historic election of Mayor Mary Sheffield as a signal of a new era of leadership and why it matters to see Black women in power. The conversation digs into Framework E’s citywide impact—from nonprofit partnerships to major clients—and the transformative redevelopment work in Pontiac that proves collaboration is the strategy. “When we open doors for each other, we change the economy,” Pierre says. This episode captures what’s exciting about 2026: confident Black leadership, shared power, and Detroiters shaping the future with intention.
