RIP Greektown: Laikon Closing

When Cyprus left, so did we. Yes, this is sad.

In a historic district, one thing you generally don't want to do is break the streetwall. So, of course, they're going to break the streetwall. Sigh ...

Same unbelievably idiotic shortsightedness. Any normal, functioning city governed by people with half a brain in the latter quarter of the 20th century would have seen that that area was preserved and protected. However this is basically the same crew that tore down the Lafayette Building to build...who fucking can even name or cares what's there now...and Tiger Stadium so they could periodically harass the people who would clean up the empty lot they created.
Ah, at least we now have...er...Paradise Valley?? Now if we could just get that John Conyers Boulevard designation...
