Downtown Detroit is booming in redevelopment and renovations. My company (former in a few days) does a lot of work on projects in downtown detroit. 

I just recently went to Detroit this week to gamble a bit at the MGM. Saw a lot of construction, rumors of a 60-70 story tower starting to swirl.

Does anybody have an idea what the LED lighting will look like?  I read where it's supposed to be in the east and west recesses of the building.  So is that just like a stripe, or something most substantial?

I'd imagine that the LED lights will run down the wings no?

Anyone have access to this article? I'm interested in what it says

When is this all scheduled to finish

Needs to be complete by Super Bowl week, I assume most if not all should be complete around December or early January

It's been a slow day at work so I was just on Google Maps when I stumbled upon this. Seems that google has a small area on the Avenida de Las Americas that has not been update for quite some time. Can you believe this is what the view of the GRB and this part of DT was not long ago.

There are some who will say that the Rich don't "give back." Over and over and over again, to me, that is proven false.  Much of the green space, arts, and museums we have exist because of the wealthy "giving back."  All I can say is "thank you."

 

 

That's because unfortunately people want to see the rich literally handing out money to them. It's sad but the true reality. I really hope HISD approves it, I mean why wouldn't they.

I like it, nothing flashy

Such a great addition but I can't see this project happening with the current state of the economy in Houston. I hope I am wrong though

Just got back to the area on Sunday to visit my dad and I have to say I was excited to see this building's presence really making an impact. I plan on getting downtown in the next few days, but for now, here are a couple of photos my wife took from my phone driving in...

609 LOOKS SO MASSIVE!! This view from the North Fwy is just wow no words....the way it towers over Market Square Tower just wow!! I'll be stopping for the night in Houston before going to El Salvador Tuesday, can't wait to get home and see this in person. I've been gone for tooooo long

So this project is actually happening?

Someone pinch me...

The irony of the sign and car behind it!

Midtown is developing it own nice little skyline 

Hope this leads to a combined skyline with downtown, maybe even the Medical Center

Too early to call this a Houston landmark?

i wonder if someone in detroit has ever heard the phrase "he doesn't know shit from Shinola".

I live in Metro Detroit. As of late this brand is the city's pride and joy, starting to eclipse The Big 3 somewhat.

Those cranes are starting to really get up there aren't they
