Hello, according to the recent news article, old Cass Tech will be demolished starting 1-Nov-2010.
I e-mailed Karen Nagher of Preservation Wayne, and she wrote:
"I have spoken with DPS about this building and some other alumni. There seems to be difficulties with a development plan. However, there is still a slim chance that if someone were to come forward with a plan and money to purchase the building it could still happen but it needs to happen yesterday."
She states that there is a very slim chance. Is there ANY INVESTOR that anyone knows who I/we/Cass Tech alumni can approach and pitch this building to? Is there anyone at all? Maybe a famous alumnus or even an out-of-state investor whom you know?
This building is such an icon. Being right downtown, I just don't understand why no viable plan or investor has materialized.
