What's Up With the Holiday Inn on Telegraph?
The old Holiday Inn on Telegraph in Southfield has been on a steady downward spiral for the past couple of years. It went from a Holiday Inn to a 3rd tier knock-off [[Holiday Resort?), and then a few months ago it was "closed for repairs". Thing is, I pass by there all the time, and there was no sign of any repair or renovation taking place. A few days ago, I noticed that the sign had changed, and now reads "Closed". Does anybody know, is the place kaput? It's been a long descent from the days when the hotel had a fancy rotating restaurant on the top floor.
Southfield and the Public Library
One of the highlights of Southfield is the public library. We lived in Southfield when we first moved to the area in the mid-90s and somewhere along the way southfield decided to upgrade the facilities. The result is spectacular. the place is in high demand on the weekends but the setup is nice enough to spread the demand across the building.
