For a number of months now, great swaths of delapidated residential property north of 7-Mile and east of Woodward have been demolished and fenced off. Heavy equipment and activity remain. Anybody know what's going on? | ||

That's the future home of Perfecting Church led by Marvin Winans... They just had a ground breaking ceremony a week or so ago to officially begin construction. | ||

Danny makes a valid point! Has he been drinking (more than normal)? | ||

Danny your description makes it sound like it is being placed in the middle of 7 Mile between Woodward and John R where the population resides. Its on the Corner in a big empty area on the outskirts of the Chaldean community. Doesn't matter if it was a big Polish church in a small Asian community.. it's development in a run down area. Cha ching... more tax revenue My bigger question is, what are they going to do to the big building they have on Nevada & Van Dyke? | ||

I believe that it would be a non-profit religious organization and exempt from most local taxes... However I do not know Detroit tax very well, and could be wrong. | ||

ahhhh you are right... I am sure Detroit benefits in some way from the development. Hopefully the city owned the land at least. | ||

...and I am sure the Winan's benefit much more | ||

I am sure they will benefit quite nicely, lol. hopefully it's for the greater good of the members/community/ and city vs personal gain... | ||

its not all Chaldean. That neighborhood is relatively near the upscale Palmer Woods | ||

on the EAST side of Woodward its most likely 80%+ Chaldean. The WEST side of Woowdard is Palmer Woods etc... but the East side of Woodwards inner bowels are mos visible than the heavily wooded Palmer Woods West side.. | ||

Anyone know the exact borders of this church property? Will it come right up to Woodward, or is it a few blocks to the east? Will they tear down Dutch Girl Donuts? | ||

it is on the Northeast corner of 7 and Wooward north of Mc Donalds. They have a small building right on Woodward practically and the church will be behind that. |
