Default Pontiac Silverdome sells for $583,000

Silverdome sale price disappoints | detnews.com | The Detroit News

Quote:
Mike Martindale / The Detroit News
Pontiac -- Nearly 35 years after taxpayers spent $55.7 million building the Pontiac Silverdome and a year after a $20 million sale fell through, city officials have sold the arena once called the most desirable property in Oakland County.

The price: $583,000.

"This was a giveaway," said David J. Leitch, a broker with an Auburn Hills based realty firm.

Would high-waters and deck shoes be the required uniform for that league?

Detriot is a totally bankrupt city. It is scary how that town is totally economically collapsed. Unfortunately, I am not all that surprised. You can buy a home in Detriot for $10k.
