Detroit Adult Entertainment: CVS, Tim Hortons to rise from

… That big, ugly parking structure and hotel wasn’t all that conducive to foot traffic,” Klobucher said. “The way that it’s configured, you can get off the expressway, go to Tim Hortons and get right back on the expressway. I can’t think of a better location.” 
Earlier this year, demolition began on the long-blighted, nine-story Days Hotel building — once the tallest on Hazel Park’s skyline — and its accompanying 40,000-square-foot, two-story parking structure.
Since 1991, when Holiday Inn first sold the 1.69-acre property, the structure has seen management by a revolving door of companies, from Quality Inn and the Star Hotel to Guest House Inn and La Casa Inn. Each venture failed.
With a history of crime, including prostitution rings, the building languished in its own decay, remaining shuttered a year before a settlement between the city and Huntington Property Holdings was reached, leading to its demolition.

Bernard Kilpatrick, the father of former Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, on Tuesday broke weeks of silence with an attack on the family of slain stripper Tamara “Strawberry” Greene, claiming the civil suit they filed against the city is about money not justice.
“There’s no reason for me to be here,” Kilpatrick told reporters moments before he sat for a six-hour deposition with attorney Norman Yatooma.  “There was no party.  So these greedy so-and-sos are trying to get some money because they seen it happen.”
He went on to accuse the father of Greene’s son of “pimping that little boy” for profit in the lawsuit.

Birmingham –After delaying for weeks, Bernard Kilpatrick answered questions under oath for much of Tuesday about a lawsuit involving the death of a stripper rumored to perform at a party he insists never happened.
Kilpatrick, the father of disgraced ex-Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, arrived early and was eager to talk.
Despite his lawyer’s efforts to silence him, Bernard Kilpatrick criticized an investigation into the alleged Manoogian Mansion party, called the father of slain stripper Tamara Greene’s son a “deadbeat” and defended his imprisoned son, who was indicted in June on 19 fraud and tax counts.
Before heading into the deposition, Kilpatrick told reporters it is “terrible” that he is being deposed, denied the raucous party ever occurred and blamed the civil lawsuit on “greedy” people.
