The Ilitches have been pulling this same shit for decades. They did it with Comerica Park, they did it with the Madison Lenox demo, they did it with the building demos in the area behind the Fox, and now they have done it again with LCA.
The local media has investigated and reported on these stories all along, and there were people outraged, showing up at city council meetings, etc.
The previous news stories and local public outcry over these issues never gained much traction or political support because most of the people with money and influence didn't give a shit about the city, and the mindset that "beggars can't be choosers" was the default when discussing development in the city.
