Plan To Turn Free Press Building Into Condos Revived
It looks like Detroit Paper Place 2.0. is finally, slowly, moving forward. The Detroit Brownfield Redevelopment Authority approved incentive financing on a $70 million plan to turn the vacant Free Press building into residential apartments, office and retail space, as well as a health club on the upper floor.
The project still needs to find market rate financing, but the developers are hopeful. They believe that construction will begin in 2011.

Another Loss in Rivertown
You had to see this one coming. The back of this building at Franklin and St. Aubin collapsed prior to March of 2009. The city finally got around to demolishing it this past May. All that remains is a hole in the ground.
