The article focuses on the plan of putting shops and homes in Detroit, Michigan where Tiger Stadium now stands. According to the plan, there will be a first-floor retail with residential units above on some 4 to 5 acres of the outer perimeter of the 9-acre site, while preserving the old ballfield as a public park. Earlier plans included total demolition for construction of a major retail store and a $200 million rehabilitation within the shell of the stadium to include luxury condos and a health club.
