I ran across this when looking for info on "Cash for Clunkers," a program based on the idea that we could somehow get ahead by destroying useful and valuable assets.
The state mistakenly demolished 12 homes in Detroit, including one that had been purchased by a pair of artists who thought they had found their dream home. It was in Detroit but adjacent to Grosse Pointe. They had planned to do a little work on it, and move in by Spring 2013. The home was mistakenly demolished, along with 11 others owned by a real estate investor who had planned to rehab them.
