The failed studio is only part of the problem. Companies like Frito Lay and Smirnoff that left years ago were the begining of the decline. All communities are hurting, Taylor just laid off 17 firefighters. That property has value. Easy access to 3 freeways, 10 minutes to Metro Airport and Greenfield Village, and rail access. They just need to market it better. Clearly there was wrongdoing between the former mayor and the studio head. Wasn't the state looking into this?
