This one is even more ridiculous:

Basically turning a penalty for not living up to their promises and sitting on swaths of empty lots into a "contribution." Lunacy.
Didn’t they recently hire some PR firm? Seems like they are at work trying to burnish the Ilitch image.
It it is nice to see windows being installed. Let’s hope it’s more than a few for a photo op.
Why am I reminded of the Moroun's putting window into Michigan Central?
Nothing says company with character like a news hub devoted to restoring the image you destroyed through your behaviors.
Its certainly a logical thing to come to mind, given the track record of those two families. On the other hand, these windows do look a lot better than Moroun’s Michigan Central crap. With Kraemer involved they might actually be decent quality.Quote:

I’ve often said they are their own worst enemy. All they really need to do is regularly perform on SOMETHING, in a timely manner, in order to dampen the critics. Even if they are still incredibly behind on the promises made.
if anyone can take a pic or two of the progress being made on the Eddystone, please do
How do you like those Red Wings? Tigers?
They're following what the PR firm they hired to do, said to do, at least very likely. From a PR perspective, it shows at least a start in improving their image because it's so bad right now.
Hopefully the news outlets continue to hound them though.
It's much cheaper than doing the right thing.Quote:

Perhaps because it took them years to do that and they also made a huge PR deal about it? That'd be my guess! :)Quote:
