The other major ruin site, this one contemporary but with striking resemblance to the Packard Plant with gaunt missing windows, has had its would-be savior peel off.



Crain's is reporting that the massive mistake on Telegraph known as Bloomfield Park has been jilted by Grand/Sakwa. More pictures and past discussion here.

The cancellation of the Grand/Sakwa deal to acquire foreclosure rights to the property was confirmed Tuesday by Alan Greene, partner at Dykema Gossett PLLC, who represents San Francisco-based Wells Fargo Bank NA in the Bloomfield Park matter and Grand/Sakwa in other litigation, and Elise Wilkinson, Wells Fargo senior vice president and communications manager.

"Their due diligence is over now, and they're not going forward," Greene said.

"It doesn't have anything to do with the property itself or the prospects for it. Everything was good in that regard. We've just got other alternatives, and we're going forward with those alternatives at this point."
Other alternatives? The Packard Plant? ha ha
