There's nothing there right now - it's now pretty much an empty lot. The reason it will take so long is probably due to the building construction.

Trust me, I know. It's infuriating. I want to stay in Detroit, but I'm being courted by firms in Chicago, San Francisco, and New York -- not one of my phone calls has been returned here in the D. Until this city is run by those that judge on merit an capability rather than social prowess, Detroit will struggle.
