The Greek restaurants who have sold out, yes, sold out for large sums of money, did so because very few people want to eat Greek food anymore. As for demolition, what has the casino demolished in recent years exactly?? I can only name one in the past ten years, and it ended up filling in all of your precious "gaps in the streetwall". Everyone here needs to stop blaming everyone else for the problems of Detroit and its downtown. If you want to see it succeed you must actually come here and get all of your friends to do the same. YOU are the reason it isn't more than it is.............

True!! Bravo! It takes a lot of money to run a greek restraunt properly. You think those belly dancers and bands play for free? If you take those away, all you have are glorified coney islands. Folks are not willing to pay for a decent meal with entertainment anymore. Thats why the Bazouki is now a nudie bar instead of a supper club and you got fast food places like Five Guys or Coldstone. Okay these are more expensive fast food places than McDonalds, but they are still not the same kind of experience you would get from a greek supper club of old.

Have your fast food and slot machines. Thats what you want. Be happy that is there and it don't look like Capitol Park.
