In the latest ConstructConnx U.S. Spotlight, a new Detroit bus terminal focuses on nostalgia with the adaptive reuse of one of the remaining structures of the now defunct Michigan State fairgrounds site.
June 15, 2023
The $31.5 million refit, underway for several months, has a completion date of April next year. Work is being carried out by southwestern Detroit’s Ideal Contracting, a minority-owned firm with a pedigree from smaller community projects to larger industrial ones. That changed after the city and the Detroit Department of Transportation , which runs city buses, consulted the public.
But with nostalgia comes increased costs to the tune of $13 million, all being footed by the City of Detroit. Meanwhile construction crews continue to evaluate the barn for structural issues and make sure the rehab is up to code.
