southen, that's the former Film Exchange Building... Ilitch does NOT own it.

It has an interesting history whoever.... Back when the new baseball stadium was planned for west-of-Woodward, that building owner suddenly started putting new windows into his building. Once the decision was changed to east-of-Woodward to also include a Football Stadium, the work on this building suddenly stopped.
Fast forward 10 years... this building owner suddenly decided to PAINT a nice yellow brick building white... [[what a silly thing to do)... and no other work has been done on it since.
So I can forsee the city coming in and writing some tickets [[such as with the Wurlitzer Building when it was raining bricks)... for this "speculator" owner to rectify.
