If our fine leaders in Lansing and Detroit could figure out a way to tax parking lots at a more equitable rate this wouldn't even be an issue. But, like most of our state's policies, they are...

She ran for City Council and I changed my ninth vote from Pugh to her after hearing about Pugh's failures in paying is personal bills. I only wish many others had as well. She seems quite bright and...

Except there is rarely traffic and crossing all nine lanes is only a problem on St. Pat Saturdays.
lol

It appears to be two connected buildings... one along Michigan Avenue and one behind. If true, it would be nice if they saved the Michigan Ave. fronting building [[which appears quite small) and did...

I bet he stops investing until he gets a bit more respect from the local government.

Yes. I know they didn't intend to run it, but at this point how committed are they [[M-1 Rail) to getting it done? I think Gilbert is still very committed. I'm trying to think of how they could...

Good point... but it doesn't have to be the same technology. Build the light rail, but raise it up above grade only at the grand circus connection and integrate the payment procedure so it's the same...

I think the price tag would balloon though?

I believe the state and city subsidy was cut in half for the next budget year.I didn't say there wouldn't be federal involvement. The Bridge company is a private company that works with the feds. I'm...

Here's an idea... be gentle if it's completely ignorant on some fronts.

1. Transfer control of the Detroit Transportation Corp. [[People Mover operator) to M-1 rail. Saving the City and State $4.5...

No on a recall, but Bing has been a failure so far. I would love to see how much money has been spent on consultants for which no follow thru occurs. Mackenzie Group studying the city structure,...

The person that rented my place moved here from Kentucky and works at Henry Ford Macomb which I did not realize also qualified her for live midtown.

Meijer "signed" more than four years ago at eight mile and woodward. So this could be a long way off still, if true.

But I have to say I truly believe DYES had a direct impact by posting on their...

If you go to their website, it appears that the only Boutique Hotel they currently operate is Hotel Indigo. Maybe its a possibility?

"Does anyone know if the upper floors are going to be residential?"

No, business offices.

Anyone know anything about the start of interior demolition at the Broderick?

Bye, bye. Casino killed it. Demo starts soon. Could have at least thrown em a bone with comps. That's the problem with the two all inclusive casinos. They should have all been required to be around...

They are part of DEGC projects to clean and light the vacant structures. The "grocery store" is a liquor store with some foor products.

Also, its south of the re-paving area. It's in the area of the 'privately funded light rail section'. Does that make a difference? I did think that at least they weren't repaving the privately funded...

Great video.
Had to reference my post from 1 1/2 year ago. Interestingly enough, Mike Posner and Black Milk are finally blowing up and Eminem rapped with full band behind him for the first time......

Their insurance company is fighting a claim that stemmed from sewer backup.

A park at the most important development corner to the University? Completely assanine! Buildings make street corners what they are, corners to urban fabric. Now this corner will look like the SW...

The city income tax is levied on companies too. When a company is on the verge of bancruptcy [[like so many in this region have been at different times), it's an easy choice for the bean counters to...

I don't think it can be done all at once, but removing the city income tax, I believe, would repay itself in a couple of years from more residents with money living in the city and more sales tax...

This post says it all about the decrease of not only wealthy people choosing not to live in the city, but also businesses not locating in the city. It's harder to compete for business and residents...
