The city of Detroit and Mayor Dave Bing planned to tear down 1,500 dangerous and abandoned structures by the end of September 2012. The initial plan for the program will begin in Detroit’s Morningside neighborhood (1/2-mile radius around the school) and is expected to be expanded to other neighborhoods that desperately need vacant homes demolished.
