All excellent choices in this thread.
I will nominate the whole block of surface parking between Randolph to Brush and Lafayette to Fort. Such a dead and sterile wide open space right smack downtown between two pedestrian heavy areas.

Randolph St downtown . The huge parking lot across from the Wayne County Building. Deserve a nice skyscraper or apartment highrise development.
I'm holding out hope that someone will see the potential in making that lot a hotel with a connection to the Wayne County building as event space. That would be a killer addition to downtown.
Water under the bridge now but I thought that would have been a great spot for the Motown museum. Could have moved the original house onto the parking lot or lawn. The Wayne County Building was renovated 2 yrs. ago so the 50 million Motown is spending would have went a long way. Also a great spot for an auto museum but that's not a money maker and getting the Detroit 3 all on board probably would never happen.
The Wayne County Building and the adjacent lot are owned by the same people. Apparently they've invested 7 million into the building. No idea what they plan on doing with the lot. I thought it would make great apartments.
