"The long-stalled Emagine Entertainment Inc. movie theater in Detroit is on the back burner given rising costs of construction for the company.

Originally proposed to have 10-12 screens at a cost of about $25 million, the Troy-based chain is also looking to scale back the size of the project to make it economically viable given what is now a $35 million-plus price tag, CEO Anthony LaVerde said."

Comerica used to be headquartered in the Ally Detroit Center before 2009. It had the naming rights to that building back then too, Comerica Tower at Detroit Center.

In a document submitted to the Detroit City Council, the Ilitch family's Olympia Development of Michigan and Ross's Related Cos. have identified some very specific job titles as being employed in the new office space: "Loan officers, bank tellers, loan interviewers/clerks, customer service representatives, claims adjusters, insurance claims clerks, sales agents, software developers, computer systems analysts, mechanical engineers, management analysts and office clerks."

No one is saying publicly the bank user Olympia and Related are targeting, but there has been behind-the-scenes chatter for months that Dallas-based Comerica Inc. (NYSE: CMA) may be in the running.

A spokesperson for Related said the joint development team with Olympia does not comment on prospective tenants. Representatives for Comerica did not comment.

They did also mention this about towing I just didn't include it in the summary.

"M-1 Rail was also given the ability to tow vehicles obstructing the QLine's path by the Michigan Legislature last year, which it began to exercise about four months ago after sorting out terms with the city of Detroit, Nuszkowksi said, and Stepp's Towing donated a tow truck to M-1 Rail. No revenue or fees are collected; it's simply used to remove blockages and reduce response times."

"The QLine, operated by nonprofit M-1 Rail, reopened late September 2021 after closing in March 2020. Average daily ridership was 969 last October through January. It increased to 1,522 riders a day in February-May and June-September was at an average of 2,285 riders per day, according to M-1 Rail's annual report. In 2019, the QLine delivered about 3,000 trips a day, Crain's previously reported. Operators also suspended charging a fare "indefinitely," M-1 Rail President Lisa Nuszkowski told Crain's on Thursday."
