Velodrome Detroit

Had construction started on the supposed velodrome at Tolan Park. I don't see any signs of work being done. Had the $4 million dollars gotten tangled in the wall of red tape?

Construction expected to begin next week.

That rendering doesn't show much space for spectator seating.

This will surprisingly be the fastest project that will be completed in Detroit if this is done by September. Other cities could get it done this fast but unrelated Gilbert projects usually take too longer than expected in tbis still corrupt city

Speaking of velodromes, is there any news about the abandoned one at Dorais Playground? Last I heard it was being restored. Or was that just wishful thinking?
