Theft?
Following upon the presumed theft of the bronze Edwin Denby plaque from the Brodhead Armory, scrappers might be at it again. Today I noticed that the Dedication Plaque to the "Gateway to Freedom" sculpture at Hart Plaza is missing. The sculpture is a memorial to the Underground Railroad and has a companion piece entitled "Tower of Freedom" which is located in Windsor.
Maybe, the plaque is being repaired or replaced and was not scrapped. However, things being what they are right now, I am not all that hopeful.

Texas de Brazil Coming to Compuware
The Brazilian churrascaria-style steak house chain is slated to open April May, 2011 in the former Borders Books location inside of the Compuware Building. Texas de Brazil provides fixed-price dinners for a 50 to 60 item bar of salads and appetizers, plus all-you-can-eat roasted meats, continuously carved off long skewers onto guests’ plates by servers.
