March 9, 2010 at 1:48 pm | In Detroit strip clubs | No CommentsShirlee thought about investing another $10,000 in his house. It wouldn’t make a difference. It’s appraised at $2,000.
“The city has gone nuts,” said Bertha Sieg, 69, who has lived on 15th Street for 42 years. “The city needs to start fixing up the neighborhoods and help homeowners who live here and get something done.”
Sieg said she doesn’t care how much the city would offer. She plans on dying in her home.
Lahser-Berg thrives
Closer to the border of Southfield, brick ranches are valued around $70,000. They began springing up in the 1950s in Lahser-Berg.
Two pillars of the neighborhood stand on Burt Road: McKenny, which opened in 1950, and Bethany-Pembroke Chapel. Neighbors organize to fight the sale of drugs at Henry Tuttle Park and problems that spill over from the Penthouse Club topless bar on Eight Mile.
