More like 5.5 years - I work across the street from Salesforce Tower.
Salesforce Tower had around 50-60 caisons that went around 200-250 feet into bedrock. There's a project across the street that...

It was a great night... I'll have photos from the night on our Facebook page shortly, but here's the video we made for the event that was playing in the lobby for the ceremony:

Dexlin, the Penobscot while under receivership was basically in "maintenance mode", but with Capmark, the lender on the building, taking it back this past year, you're seeing resources finally find...
Wow legalbeagle, we just sent invitations this afternoon to tenants, glad to see word is getting out on the event... The re-lighting of the red beacon is scheduled for the 27th and special guest...
Ample parking? In Detroit? I think you'll find that a majority of large tenants looking to come into the city are citing the lack of parking as the number reason for not making a move downtown. ...
The City of Detroit really needs to spend some time and money investing in more positive featurette's like this - I think any entrepreneur that is on the verge of coming to a decision on investing in...
Came across this video over the weekend:
In celebration of our first year in Detroit, Quicken Loans takes to the streets and asks local business owners and downtown Detroit leaders why now is the...
Brazzman,
Thanks for the suggestions. I was able to find a copy of Levine's New Selected Poems on Amazon. For those like myself yearning to not only know, but feel, what it must have been like...
I wouldn't call it hatred, but I do find it rather humorous [[and somewhat odd).
Under the guise of “irony,” hipsterism fetishizes the authentic and regurgitates it with a winking...
Same here... never heard of him but have spent the last hour reading his poems online.
Any suggestions on which of his works one should start with?

Nathan Skid's recent blog about Astro Coffee in Crain's Table Talk blog had me laughing out loud.
This whole "hipster" fetish that has taken Detroit by storm the last couple of years is flat...
I think if we had a solid plan for the light rail Apple would be more inclined to consider a downtown location. The parking limitations in the area are a considerable setback.
Dan Duggan did a piece in Crain's about the sale.
Raleigh Studios pretty state of the art. Took a tour a couple months ago and was amazed at what I saw. These are extremely big stages - very impressive.
I know the change in tax credits did...

I remember an Uno's Pizzeria and Grille in West Bloomfield that had the most amazing Buffalo Wings... they weren't breaded but were really crispy and tasty...
I can't seem to recall there ever...
