Absolutely, it does. Can't argue against that. However, we still need a convention facility of sorts. And barring some kind of miracle, that's it for the forseeable future.
You'll be waiting a long time for some factories, I'm thinking, and a downtown train station. I'm hoping that they ramp up the business for conventions with the new management. That might improve your outlook some.
Like I said above, I don't disagree. The term green is used to cover up a multitude of sins. There are ways around everything. But it's more of a statement.Conservation is important, but some things just aren't worth conserving. I think Cobo is a good example: Political football, managerial disaster, white elephant, Goliath resource-sucker, and all for a week a year. But, more to your point, I think good things are often used in the defense of bad things. Take the whole "green" thing: Once any term or tactic has a sheen to it like "green" does, you can use it to push the brownest stuff out there. Those are my concerns.
