Fisher Body Plant 21 renovation plan announced

Highly doubtful. For one, it's not a massively larger property than MCS. But more importantly, MCS was about using artisanal methods to restore an architectural gem, spare no expense. Like, literally months spent on restoring/recreating individual plaster medallions, moldings, etc. Not to mention pumping all the water out of the basement and subbasement.

Fisher 21 has none of that. Once you clear out all the junk - which is largely done - then it's just a matter of stabilizing a few parts of the structure, and it's a straightforward loft conversion. Like the thousands that have been done in NYC, Chicago, etc. There are no architecturally significant details to painstakingly restore.

The train station project had Ford Motor Company money and brains behind it. There was never a question it was going to get completed.

As long as itÂ’s not a vehicle they should be okay

I wonder if they are going to rent out space to those extended warranty guys,it would be convenient.

They could buy up the 5 story CPA Building across Michigan Ave for those folks...
