I actually disagree. I actually like that they are doing small 2-3 story buildings near the water with the taller buildings set back further. This is very similar to areas in Boston and New Orleans.

I know Chrysler announced they were going to move some personnel into the dime building [[although, I'm not sure they ever did), but this would be pretty exciting if all the suppliers around metro...

Not to hijack this thread, but does anyone know what happened to the Statute of Liberty replica that Detroit had? I found the below video link that is from the 1914 Liberty Bond parade here in...

I've been wondering this myself all summer. Stop and get coffee every once and while at GL and have not seen any activity happening on the building. Anyone have an update?

Maybe someone from...

While I'm very excited with the stadium renderings, I have to admit that I am a little skeptical on the other disclosed "plans." The same exact plans have been proposed/disclosed by the Ilitch's in...

Inching closer to possible reality...

I agree, that it appears that he was misquoted. In fact, the Supreme Court recently curtailed the powers of the US Bankruptcy court [[non article III court) in Stern v. Marshall, 131 S.Ct. 2594...

Here is a quote from the case that I find interesting:

That art 9, § 24 only protects those financial benefits that increase or grow over time is not only supported but, indeed, confirmed by the...

Novine, I am not trying to fight about this clause and have agreed that you could interpret the pension "contract clause" as meaning the benefits accrued by the individual. However, it is a...

Correct. The next clause states: "Financial benefits arising on account of service rendered in each fiscal year shall be funded during thatyear and such funding shall not be used for financing...

Correct. To me this seems to be a valid reading and interpretation for the clause. However, I'm still unsure whether some legislative history exists that would expressly indicate that this clause...

See this is where I am having the problem. I keep hearing people say that the "accrued financial benefits" refers only to what the retiree's are to receive. But the full sentence of section 24 states...

Correct the terms are determined at the point of retirement, but that is not what is literally stated in the Section 24 of the Constitution. Changing the terms of what the pensioner was told he...

So i've read this a couple of times and just curious to get your thoughts.

Section 24 of the constitution states :"The accrued financial benefits of each pension plan and retirement system of the...

Not sure I agree. Here is actual opinion.

"We hold that Duggan has not met the qualifications for elected office by the plain terms contained in the charter. We also hold that the durational...

I'm having a hard time visualizing. Is it the tall building on the right hand side of the photo?

Yes, it is going on the lot with the 12 foot fence.

Yeah, I saw this yesterday while driving down woodward and was trying to remember if this was ever discussed here or was a new development.

This is great news, I will tentatively keep my fingers crossed. :rolleyes:

i like. Thanks!:D

Actually according to mich law 752.542 it is illegal to say either.

It is unlawful and constitutes incitement to riot for a person or persons, intending to cause or to aid or abet the institution...

The quote "Even the Bloods in the hood fight for their territory" does seem to indicate that he is inciting the use of violence [[e.g., armed violence).

All i can say about that verdict is wow. I am floored.

Supposedly, the Cottons did try to acquire land west of alter [[i.e., Detroit) but were told to go pound sand. Their original plan was to try to develop on both sides and make it into a thriving...
