It always cracked me up that the Detroit Zoo wasn't in Detroit... I really hope the city can start getting back things like the zoo and maybe a few large grocery stores (there are none).

Sig,
I had a debate about grocery stores with a colleague a few months back. After bickering for a couple hours about this idea we came to a conclusion: A large grocery / chain store in downtown detroit would never work.
Think about it. They would need 24/7 security and surveillance, not to mention the amount of consumers passing through the store would require a ridiculous supply and demand of product... Have you ever been to a CVS downtown? There are whole aisles where the shelves are mostly barren with 1 or 2 items left behind.
- Also there are the local grocers / farmers markets / eastern market to considerd_rek
- They used to work. Farmer Jacks went down a few years ago.Mimio
- what about meijer? that seems to be working.doesnotexist
- there's a meijer downtown? where?d_rek
- Meijers in Dearborn?Mimio
- But, that is a major reason for people not moving back to the city...so which comes first?SigDesign
- people or infrastructure?SigDesign

Who becomes Mayor now? Is there like a "Vice-Mayor?"

WDET has opened their phones lines to people who want to vent about the ex-Mayor, the city, etc. Pretty entertaining.
