Regardless of whether or not they call it Motor City Pride, Ferndale is the area's "gayborhood" by default. It seems a bit strange to arbitrarily drop Pride in Hart Plaza [[if that is in fact where it's going) over the 9 mile commercial area that has been pretty welcoming to teh gheys over the years. So instead of the various gay and gay friendly places that have congregated in Ferndale being packed and probably having their best weekend of the year....they'll be totally empty as the entire ghey community will be standing around the concrete parking lot that is hart plaza. I really don't get this decision. Maybe it will work, but I see both Pride and Ferndale coming out as losers on this one.
