The Target was located in a large stip mall located on the site of the former Bel Air Drive-In Movie on the south side of 8 Mile between Van Dyke and Hoover. It was west of the large [[acreage) Detrot Water & Sewage Dept. plant.

It had a promising beginning, and even Eminem had his World Premier of "8 Mile" in the Cineplex in that "U" shaped large strip mall.

Unfortunately one by one the businesses went under.

I remember about 6 years ago going to a Detroit Edison Office in the location of a former store... and thought... then that this strip mall was going down the tubes fast.

The irony is that although it was close to bus service [[8 Mile) there was no foot traffic in the area, since there were no close residences. But within a 3 mile radius there are thousands of residents.
