"The city wants the east side plant torn down and likely will move it through Detroit's condemnation procedure, which entails a number of hearings and appearances before the City Council, Henderson said.
Bioresource officials, including Casab, also may be asked to come forward and give depositions. Demolition and cleanup of the site could cost [[TAXPAYERS]] upward of $20 million, Henderson said."
Cool Peruvian millionaire buys it for $400k to make 40-acre site into manufacturing, building a go-kart track and apts/condos. Starting over from scratch and using the same original architecture firm who built the place a century ago. That is huge.
