That may sound like a stupid question. But I've been reading about the Madison-Lenox demolition. Apparently, Kilpatrick demolished it illegally. I realize it's been over 4 years.

Were you for or against preservation of the Madison-Lenox?
Were you angry when it was torn down?
How do you feel now?
Did it change your opinions of Kwame Kilpatrick? Did it make you feel differently about Mike Ilitch?
What does it mean for the future? Can the mayor tear down a building just because he feels like it?
What can/should preservation groups do to prevent this type of ambush demolition from happening again?
Will politicians in the city help preservationists?
Are preservation groups in this area strong enough to fight the local government?

I know it's been 4 years, and I'm sure I'm beating a dead horse. But I'm curious about your opinions on this. If there's already a thread on this, I apologize.

Thanks.
