    Default Illitch Holdings float at the Thanksgiving Day Parade.

    Why didn't the float also include a wrecking ball and few of the buildings torn down for parking lots?

    The front had buildings actually HELD by Illitch Holdings, Inc., but the center building looked conspicuously like the RenCen...and I'm sure he doesn't own the People Mover.

    He doesn't, right?! LOL!

    At this point, on how the city bows down to him, I wouldn't be surprised. But he is a great business man and Detroit would not be in as good of a position without him. He sponsored the float. Noone ever said it had to be only his buildings on it hahaha. Although, we all know that he could fill a float with his buildings. Whether they be occupied or not.

    Did he have Dave Bing-Illitch holding hands with him?
