I've been reading about the GM plant/demolition of the neighborhood and had a few questions that I hope someone can fill me in on.

How did the neighborhood that is now occupied by the GM plant compare to the area directly south of 94 [[Chene) as far as quality of life?

Was there any other areas that GM was looking at to build the plant?
Did the fact that Hamtramck lost Dodge Main factor in as far as replacing some the cities tax base?

Thanks.
