Email your reps folks, GM cuts people in Michigan and then asks for handouts to save an eyesore building, story at 11. Let them tear it down, guarantee it would cost the same or more to do so.

What makes you think there will be profits?  IF they ever end up in the black from it, a simple few executive bonuses can cut that down to nothing really quick.

Fuck em.  Tear it down.  Let the skyline evolve and rejuvenate the riverside area.

Exactly. All of it.

Well, see, their name IS on the building.

How appropriate. When I lived there I always thought that building looked like a giant middle finger to the city. 

Let them move out. Get rid of RenCen. It might be part of Detroit’s iconic skyline (if you can call the skyline iconic), but it’s also emblematic of everything wrong with Detroit (it’s a crappily designed building).

The Ren Center is the poster child for that bleak dystopian 1970's/80's movie set about 20-30 years in the future. Headquarters for the bad guys and their all encompassing corporation that has enslaved the population into a cycle of crime, poverty, cheap drugs, a literal life of hell.   oh wait that kind of has come…

Add another sound to the overload in new cars, what with automatic lane-keeping, awareness monitoring, etc.

Screw GM. Michigan is littered with broken cities where life once revolved around GM, and where pensioners can now be seen rolling around in Korean-made Buicks as if they are still somehow supporting the union and their communities in spirit. I’d urge anyone to come to Flint and decide for themselves if we still owe…

And what you fail to mention is that GM is a private business and makes it’s own money. Asking for a taxpayer handout so they can double-dip on charitable tax breaks later is ridiculous.

Boy, it’d be a shame if Detroit or the state just eminent domain-ed the whole thing and told GM to pound sand. A real shame.

Raze away. Why in the hell should taxpayers be held responsible for a multi-billion dollar corporation’s real estate boondoggle? Plus it’s just a 1970's skyscraper, who gives a fuck if it gets torn down, it’s not exactly a historically significant building. I’m sure another ugly sky penis will get put up in its place.

“We can’t spend our money... that’s what your money is for!”

This is like the same BS with the Chicago Bears threatening the city to give them hundreds of millions for a new stadium, or they’re going to take their ball to a far suburb. Win some championships first.
F them. Tear it down. Bye.

Knock it the fuck down. Why? I'm sick of my Buick beeping at me 3 times if I even barely tap my key fob in my pocket. Fuck these losers. No more tax money for these suck pumps. No more. I'm a union guy to the bone. I'm in a union. I buy union. I bleed union. These assholes have shit on the union. Let them die. I'll…

These fuckers just don’t get it.  Viva le revolution.

Knock it down, already. It was obscene that they completed it as GM sold out Flint, MI to production in Mexico. I want nothing to do with downtown Detroit and my tax dollars have already bailed GM once. No more. Get rid of that eyesore.

On the other hand, who doesn’t love seeing a skyscraper blow up?

Just based on the top photo, the skyline would be greatly improved if they tear it down.
