City Council approves Mayor Duggan’s land transfer deal with the Moroun family

city council

The Detroit City Council has approved Mayor Mike Duggan’s land transfer with the Moroun family. The vote was 7-2. This will enable Detroit to expand and make improvements at Riverside Park in Southwest Detroit. It also gives the Morouns’ Detroit International Bridge Company a three-acre piece of the park near the Ambassador Bridge. The plan is to use this land to build a second bridge to Canada. Those plans still need several approvals from the state and federal government as well as the Canadian government.
