Thanks for confirming my original suspicion.:)

Came across this photo in DetNews. Noticed the church in the background that looks very similar to Dexter Ave. Baptist Church which i understand was formerly a Jewish synagouge. The caption read...

Turkel House without a doubt.

Property taxes, to which you refer are meaningless for this debate. Should Gilbert get the land, the abatements and credits he'll receive means he won't pay property tax either.

Kinsel's Drugs was on the NW corner and Cunningham's was across the street on Griswold but just to the north, nearer to Capitol Park.
