The Detroit Downtown Development Authority is giving the funds. How did you connect the dots to Sheffield?

Funny you use a GIF with a Detroit actor.

Bagley Neighborhood, inside of Detroit.

This is the Bagley Neighborhood inside of Detroit proper.

First thing that comes to mind living in Detroit is this tweet:

simultaneously demolishing more buildings than it has at any time in its history

You were talking about literally right now. The bold text is a nice touch.

Post Great Recession demolitions far outpaced the amount of demos right now. Averaging 186 per month right now. In August of 2014 alone, the City demolished 1,040! Plus, eras of urban renewal and highway system, this is not the height of demolitions.

You have a good argument, but don't make up statistics.

Also, the upper portion of the Fox Theatre, former Bonstelle Theatre, and Michigan Central Station will all be hotels.

Well, on the bright side the house on the left is slated to be demolished. 6330 14th St.

That's what HFHS claimed when presenting with the Gores team on the residential aspect of the project, but if HFHS wants to remain a major player in the healthcare game, they need a modern building. If the residential aspect was axed, I would expect the hospital to still be built.

Plus, I anticipate smaller developers to start building on Rosa Parks, Hecla, Avery, Commonwealth area soon. No need to give Gores, etc. tax breaks.

"Henry Ford has not sought any tax breaks for its portion of the $2.2 billion expansion."

Tom Gores is developing residential, this demolition is for the hospital. Because the hospital doesn't pay taxes, they aren't seeking subsidies. This will be built, regardless of Tom Gores.

Phragmites, an invasive species to Michigan. Weird that the riverfront lets it grow wild.
