There’s a study to explore a possible future expansion using a city department that has had very little responsibility for a long time to do a transit station development is a very early testing I think for maybe being serious about an expansion. The hardware will probably needed to be upgraded in the next decade or two if federal and state money are available to back Detroit up it’s a viable option but not a large long term solution.
If the goal of an expansion is to try and make something more out of the little monorail circle especially with more conventions and sports being is a viable goal. Like connecting the confusing dense downtown core with the densest neighborhoods Midown, Eastern Market and Corktown. That the Target store development not happening sucks but it’s a direct reflection of the bad financial times we are all in not that the project is unworkable in another form.
Not saying it’s going to happen just saying hey let’s see where this goes just that this is the direction they may be looking.
