    Why do you think Mayor Young wanted to kill businesses on Davison? Or that Mayor Young had any significant hand in that plan at all, since the plans to extend the Davison freeway were in motion well before he was mayor? In fact, it was Young who stopped demolition for future freeway plans in Detroit in the mid-'70s.
