MSU is also allowing long-time sponsor General Motors to continue advertising free of charge this year:



This makes me a proud MSU grad!

The fountain is prime advertising space. GM told Illitch they couldn't afford it. Illitch had offers from unnamed companies willing to pay more than what GM was paying. Illitch decided to give the...

@ Lowell...

Yep, former Sams Club [[closed at least 6 years ago, probably longer)
Obviously the former Best Buy [[now seasonally a Halloween USA as you mention)
Davids Bridal closed more...

Thanks, but I grew up less than a half mile from the Quo Vadis. So I'm well informed on the area.

Haha! Relax, though. It's hardly appropriate for someone who left in 1987 and hasn't seen the city in 5 years to write an obituary for it based on the possibility that the freaking Quo Vadis is...

@ Lowell in regards to ID'ing the buildings.

In Order:
Michael's Arts & Crafts [[closed this year)
Carino's Italian Grill [[I think)
Value City Department Store
Value City Furniture
Denny's...

@ Lorax...

The LA Fitness plan fell through, hence the moves toward the wrecking ball. So if you are serious about your fitness center/spa/juice bar/coffee shop, then I'm sure the Westland City...

Yeah, I remember it being very creepy inside when I was a kid. Now I consider it a giant reminder of Detroit's and Westland's shortcomings. It has been vacant for over 5 years now, and was pretty sad...

Yep. That one was a lay up.

Lafayette.

If newly paved roads and sidewalks with working streetlights comes with the school, it will do nothing but help the area.

Yeah, I'm gonna disagree with you.

A lot of places are using money for development, do this search:

This is a great point.

Your naming of the photo gave it away! When you hold your mouse over the photo it comes up with your naming 'olivier The Betsy.jpg'

I stayed quiet, though.... These are fun, who woulda...

Any thoughts on the possibility of moving Guantanamo Bay prisoners to Standish Maximum Security Prison [[scheduled to be closed)?
...

Haha! I walk by that place everyday and have been inside a few times... I don't know why I called it Say Hey I must have been thinking about baseball.

Anyway, I agree that there might be some...

Isn't there another 25 threads where you can tell me how great the DEGC is and how dumb I am? My point was this never would have happened if this vacant and completely useless structure was...

They were obviously referring to the spelling of Capitol and not Capital... But yeah, he misspelled it anyway in the title. It was a typo, as he spelled it correctly in the text of his post.

Me too. In my opinion this area has so much untapped potential, and although I am not surprised about anything in this City, I'm mildly curious that there has never been rehab efforts for this...

Thanks leland... I shoulda posted the link.

Construction work is underway in the former Franklin Furniture building. The Kahn designed structure is just that, a structure. Completely dilapidated, it has been pegged for redevelopment and will...

I don't know why anyone would ever ridicule religion [[sarcasm)...

I ran across a billboard for Labatt Blue yesterday downtown. It said something about "Unmatched Refreshment". It didn't say anything about being an alcoholic beverage. It's amazing that theres so...
