Save Michigan Central Station

To:  Detroit City Council

Built in 1913, Michigan Central Station was designed by the same architect who created the famous Grand Central Station in New York.
In 1987 it was abandoned by Amtrak and left to rot for the next 22 years despite being of great historic importance and a true architectural masterpiece.
On April 7th 2009, the OK was given to demolish it with no plans for the site. What was once one of the worlds great railroad terminals will be nothing more than an empty lot in 18 months unless something is done about it. This petition is for anyone who wants to see this incredible historic structure saved for future generations.

Sincerely,

The Undersigned
