The City of Detroit has a Dashboard that lists the metrics each week. It doesn't look like they are doing demos in Jan [[likely frozen ground).

If you look at the Archives within that site - you can see they try to average 100 teardowns a week. http://www.detroitmi.gov/How-Do-I/Fi...r-28-October-4

Now that people are watching more closely, I'm sure they're trying to keep these loose ends trimmed.
