  1. How is it any better for the Near Eastside for the State to control redevelopment at Sherman Park vs. the Women’s Prison? (I’m imagining a state highway department depot, complete with salt barn, not unlike the mess where Delaware splits off from Madison under I-70 by Lilly.)

    1. Sherman Park would have been a great place for the new soccer stadium and help revitalize the area.

  2. Sherman Park should have a WalMart, possibly a Lowes or similar, and a smattering of mixed retail/residential. Put in a community services center for the city, a police sub-station, all of which would help the local residents and help revitalize and bring up tax revenue.

    1. Those big stores locate on major roads. Neither Michigan nor Sherman qualifies.

      The best reuse for the site is probably commericial/light industrial (i.e. small warehouse/manufacturing/contractors /service businesses) since there are contamination issues that prevent residential.

      Not unlike Keystone Park, but without the heavy trucking needs, since access to/from interstates is not great.
