Who is paying for all this to be demo'd??....the number of buildings is great....and the office buildings etc. are full of mold etc? I heard it would take millions to do it and the city sure doesn't have it.The homes should be easy to enough to demolish. Only wood left, all the copper and scrap have been stripped by now.
Any of the abandoned office buildings, warehouses, etc. that are structurally sound get secured for a period of X years for possible redevelopment. After that, demo them. Any other commercial buildings that are not structurally sound get demoed immediately.
Who is paying for all this to be demo'd??....the number of buildings is great....and the office buildings etc. are full of mold etc? I heard it would take millions to do it and the city sure doesn't have it.it costs about $10,000 to demolish a house or commercial building in Detroit. There’s not enough money to tackle the more than 30,000 vacant strucutres that have been identified by the city as ‘dangerous’........according to the detroit news...plus they have to follow a 36 step plan before the demolition is even begun...
As I see it it’s going to take years just to get that job done.
