The "EPI" is not an actual think-tank, but a labor union hack front. There is a STEM shortage, and everyone knows this. The idea of bringing in high-skilled immigrants to Detroit has been an idea...

These are the people who own the Prince of Wales Hotel in Niagara-on-the-Lake; I've been there and it's unbelievably charming. Looking at the pictures and the rowing machines in the main hall, one is...

Not a half-bad idea....

Wait, SHoP?! I was on their site! I wondered what that was.... do you think? What on earth is Detroit going to do with a supertall?

Either way this is great news, they do great work.

Ugh, so the bastard finally got his liquor and party store. Do we have a name for this guy? What a way to herald in the new mayoralty.

It's happening!

What about out of staters? Would I have to pay $10 for one time admission?

So the old YMCA wasn't in the baseball field's footprint then? Guess it could have been preserved... not to speak of the Wolverine!

Getting rid of this would be a crime, just the unused space above it.

Hey, I've been here for a while, but haven't posted much. But I wanted to ask a few questions.


What was Hudson's square footage? Comparing what I could find for Macy's and Hudson's, I'm getting...

How about they do something with the station, mothball the tower, but seal it off? That way the building can be used, but its not burdened for finding a use for a tower.

I'm lost- is the top a proposal? What was torn down? What was built?

I'm not a socialist by anyone's standards, by can't we just nationalize it? :rolleyes:
If only.

Hmm... it's illegal. Make your own decision off that.

Thanks, although it hasn't been restored, I'm glad they mothballed it. Now only if they took the time to do some more of that; or if some guy bought all these houses and mothballed them, waiting...
