My bet is on Gilbert turning the Fail Jail site and the [[soon to be) former Juvenile Justice Center to the south of it... as the site for the Jack Casino, with other developments planned for the Murphy site, existing Jail site, and redeveloped old Police HQ.
Gilbert's Greektown Casino is the little kid on the block with only 25% of Detroit Casino revenues.... he wants a bigger share.
The Greektown Hotel and parking structure will anchor the south side of the future larger casino, and the current Greektown Casino and former Trappers Alley, will be redeveloped into an destination of some sorts to tie the Jack Casoni, Greektown development, Monroe/Randolph and Campus Martius into a large entertainment district.
It's like what the Ilitch's would like to do farther north... but without the festoon lighting....
