  1. Detroit is one of the finalist cities in the Amazon HQ2 bid. [[Ultimate winning city will be either in Canada, Detroit or Chicago, or the northeast corridor.)
  2. Eastland closes.
  3. Pressure grows to build a second Q Line along Michigan Avenue or Jefferson.
  4. Major hotel announced for the Book Tower.
  5. No one from the Conyers family wins John's seat.
  6. Economic slow down in the U.S. starts middle to late 2018. Effects on Detroit revival unclear.
