Wow. Your ignorance knows no bounds. They are not "car lanes," they are for general vehicle travel. Bikes are classified as vehicles, and therefore, are allowed to be there. The "bike lanes" are...

The Plymouth Whalers DID NOT do well, financially anyway. The arena in Plymouth holds nearly 4000 people, and most nights had less than 2000, by the time they moved. Even in the better days in the...
Technically it IS subsidized... If the Ilitches spend $200M in the "district," the city will give them $70M over 30 years. Between this building [[$70M), and the parking garage on Montcalm currently...
Only problem is, an amendment to the Michigan Constitution forbids eminent domain for private projects. Since the "district" will likely be owned by the Ilitches, this would get sticky. The eminent...
The Detroit Athletic Club is putting an addition on their building. They are adding two restaurants and a cigar bar on their roof... hence the need for the crane.
The best thing about his situation is the Emergency Manager. Most individuals would have fought back, but Duggan has forged a relationship out of necessity. By doing this, many of the walls he stands...
Judging by the job his son has done with the Lions, it seems that they are a family of winners... :confused:
On the other side, they had glass up, then plastic, then no glass and eventually it was just like the rest. Don't know what the deal is, but I'd be surprised if it were anything special being done at...
They did the same thing on the opposite side. It's nothing special. Just don't have the glass installed yet, so they have the plastic up as temp protection while the work inside.
It's like you idiots are only reading the part of my post that you want to... And yet you keep asking the same question again and again as if you're not intelligent enough to comprehend an answer.

A lot of people do take the train. But there's a reason traffic is so bad... because suburbanites do drive to work. It's not B.S. You can't possibly tell me that all of the traffic on the freeways in...
Oh, I understand how the younger generation thinks. I am part of the younger generation. I don't want to own a car. It's a waste of time and money. I would much rather ride mass transit and read a...
The reason why everything in Downtown Chicago gets built with parking is for commuters from the suburbs. Some people in the city use cars to get to work, but not an obnoxious number. The reason for...
It's not that they CHOOSE to drive... many of them still have jobs in the suburbs that they have to get to, and transit doesn't take them there.
As I said, it's the people with the money that are...
Believe it or not, millennials don't want to have cars. Many can't even afford them. That's why they leave the area. Chicago isn't perfect, nor free of cars, but it's a lot easier not to have one...
At this rate... the whole building should be renovated within 300 years.
Most NHL teams are building a practice rink alongside their main rink these days... knowing the Ilitches though, it will be reserved for Red Wings practices. They do have a few amateur games at The...
Transit, undoubtedly, played a major role in this for Detroit.
Sure, people were already leaving when Detroit pulled up the streetcar tracks. But that's when the exodus really began. With such...
The buses being jammed has more to do with service cuts than anything else. Ridership is up, but not that much.
That's just it. There is demand, albeit only on a couple thoroughfares. But, that's where we need to start. That is what will help development spider out. It won't spider out without public spending...
They are on and off. Some days on, others off.
Chicago has multiple systems as well. The CTA system as well as PACE [[inner suburbs), and a few other lines for outlying suburbs. The difference there is two fold. One, everyone that wants to live in...
As long as the new mayor makes public safety and transportation top priorities, Detroit will continue it's revival.
As much as Benny Napoleon keeps touting his neighborhood plan, it is...
The Ilitches have said that their 'entertainment district' will include a hotel, residential development, office space and more… That said, the district lines are peculiarly drawn around the UA...
From what I've heard, his plan VERY MUCH includes the casino… not necessarily expanding into it, but perhaps even moving into it.
