Is this to be the new Meijer development?

Also been watching the progress and hoping someone on here might know what's next for this building! Lots of workers on site, both for these exterior changes, but also in the front of the building...

I, too, need to get new insurance soon for a city address. Any tips on companies to shop with or brokers to get in touch with?

Detroit has been all over the National Sunday Morning news programs. Have any of the discussions been helpful?

I can attest to what French777 says, as a downtown resident, rents are absolutely going up. I've lived in one of the downtown high-rises for the last three years as I attended law school in Midtown....

That sounds like code for we are dropping your health care entirely, but you'll be able to go into the exchange and purchase your own care if you so desire. I wouldn't be shocked if there are some...

Iheartthed That could also be because there is a large music festival downtown that weekend, DEMF / Movement / Technofest.

I don't think so, it looks like there are vehicles in the rendering. Besides, that would probably be a colossal mistake.

MrChrome, I think you've got to be right on this. Isn't the 33rd floor currently used for units?

Wait. Wait. Wait! Is Corktownyuppie actually Mark White? Coaccession?

Hermod, you are only partially right. Cities are not sovereign as you say, but the Michigan Constitution and legislative acts give them considerable autonomy and power apart from the state. Yes, the...

All three are in Detroit proper. GTP is right downtown on Woodward between Larned and Congress. Atlas and Majestic are also on Woodward Ave. but in Midtown/Cass Corridor. Atlas is just north of the...

May I also recommend Foran's Grand Trunk Pub, Atlas Global Bistro, and Majestic Café. All three do a bottomless special, but GTP is my favorite with tasty, garlicy mix, salt pickles, and $7 for the...

Three questions: 1) Do you plan to take transit to work, walk, or bike, or do you plan to drive in every day? 2) Does living IN Detroit proper matter to you, or would you be just as happy helping out...

While I understand your skepticism, I’m not entirely sure that shrinkage is / will be as big a problem downtown / Midtown as it may be elsewhere in the city.

For one, most of these shops will...

I've been downtown for approximately 2 and a half years, moving to a tower while attending graduate school in Midtown. I was not from Detroit and had passed through the city proper maybe 3 times...

A lot of these homes are built by Community Development Corporations funded by corporate donations from local businesses. I think U-SNAP-BAC [[http://www.usnapbac.org/) might be the organization...

Brushstart, I too had to walk up and down many flights of stairs yesterday, has there been any progress on the power or water situation? Over the weekend at least the water was working [[eventually)....

Is Evie's Gourmet still open in the Detroit City Apartments / Washington Square / Trolley Plaza? Depending on where you are residing that'll likely be walking distance. I usually drive out to...

Not everything related to cities and neighborhoods breaks down nicely into statistical data. While the census numbers are useful, they don't take into consideration many of the nuances and subjective...

See, here is where we disagree. IMHO every successful effort to revitalize Detroit, whether it be to improve transportation, retail, crime, schools, etc. helps the whole region, not just Detroit. Why...

Here's my take. Bailey, you are right, this trolley is NOT for you. I think that the business backers pushing for this line are doing so because it will eventually help their bottom lines. I...

dmike, It was VERY busy when they first opened but I think things have calmed down a little. Also, they have started taking phone numbers and calling you when there is an opportunity to sit now,...

Clearly, these business leaders are putting their money where their mouth is on this project. I think that if they are willing to put up the operating funds, and most of the construction funds, they...
