Hi

Sound to me if the City of Detroit is getting what it deserves for its seizing then mismanaging the property. Rather than have a tax revenue producing entity for the last decade, they've succeeded in turning it from that into a massive, expensive liability.

What an ironic, sad, shameful end for a facility in which was produced the most iconic, legendary and revered marque during the auto industry's golden era.

To know what the Packard plant was in it's halcyon days contrasted to it's current state is understand what has happened to the auto industry in general.
