I had noticed some activity going on in the former Farmer Jacks building in the Jefferson Village stripmall on Jefferson and St Jean. Does anyone knows what is going to open in that spot

That would make a good location for a Dixieland Fleamarket!
Another Spartan ghetto store. What a waste of valuable space that could had been used for a Wal-Mart. I had thought that these Spartan ghetto stores being given the green light to dominate the Detroit food market had ceased under the new administration and council
Incorrect....... this will be the site of the future HopCat bar everyone is raving about [[well, almost everyone), although there will need to be a slight expansion as the footprint calls for 55,000 Sq Ft of drinking space. 22,000 Sq Ft of that is reserved for the taps alone.
Well at least the residents in the newly developed neighborhood will have a place to walk to for a drink their troubles away trying to forget how they duped into buyi g a home in tat defunct of a developmentQuote:

I get out quite a bit, thank you. But I do have my favorites, La Colmena, Lafayette Market, and Harbor Town. Ok, I retract my first post, we have 5 total. Come to think of it, it's like living in the 'burbs. Without the boredom, of course.
Without a grocery store, the rest of that center will stay moribund. How is the Spartan store in Riverbend Plaza? That center is almost full.
It's actually pretty good. I wouldn't go out of my way to go there but it isn't ghetto. Has anybody here who is flipping their shit over this grocery store ever actually been to the other one?
Why is everyone here being such jerks? People are decrying the new bar on one thread and now the grocery store on this one.
It's a grocery store, okay, and the other one operated by the same people is perfectly fine. It isn't going to solve Detroit's problems. And what the hell is your damn problem with a Metro PCS store or a Beauty Supply store? Neither of those places ever bothered me. I'm not going to shop there but they obviously serve a need and pay taxes so who gives a shit? Why knock it? Open something you like better if you're so smart.
This is a lame thread, though it is good to hear that the space will be occupied. A strip mall is bad enough. An empty strip mall is the worst [[and hardly a Detroit-only problem).
Stasu you don't actually want city government to regulate which grocers can sign leases in the city, do you?
