After the "grand bargain". Spendin' like trailer trash who just won the lottery----A look at the 6 options for rebuilding the I-375 expressway in Detroit

A look at the 6 options for rebuilding the I-375 expressway in Detroit | Detroit Free Press | freep.com: "Beginning today, the public gets its first look at six options for rebuilding the I-375 expressway in Detroit — a once-in-50-years opportunity to redefine a key entry to the heart of downtown and east riverfront.
The options range from rebuilding it as it is now to replacing it with surface streets with several visions in between that mix and match elements.
The prices range from $40 million to $80 million.
The choice is crucial because the I-375 debate touches so many aspects of downtown’s redevelopment — from access to the east riverfront and major downtown sporting and cultural events to parking for the growing number of downtown workers.
Whatever option is chosen is bound to produce controversy.
Many downtown employers and suburban commuters want to keep their high-speed freeway access into downtown, but city planners and environmentalists may prefer to lessen the city’s dependence on motor vehicles by emphasizing public transit and fewer freeways."
