I've been to the plant at least twice in the past year. I took photos. And I've had friends and relatives in the Detroit area updating me on the plant regularly. I'm sorry, but I just don't see those new tenants that were coming. I don't see construction crews. I don't see the owner's apartment. And while a lot has been cleaned up and the bridge bagged and disguised (and that sure looks better)... and Concord Avenue closed off, I just don't see construction and serious changes being made that indicates a real enterprise going on here. Painted signs and press releases and a disguised bridge don't really add up to a rebirth for the Packard Plant. A shopping mall, gymnasium and apartments all sound good, but where are the sample units? Where are the people with jobs and pocket jingle to afford all this? And what would make such people want to live and shop here? But I remain hopeful and love the positivity, despite what my eyes tell me.
