$200-Mil Stadium Reuse Plan Submitted

DETROIT-A plan by Nonrahs-Sinacola Stadium Redevelopment for a $200-million project at the former Tiger Stadium has been turned in to the city’s planning and development department. Soon after the 89-year-old Detroit ballpark closed for good in September 1999, the city put out a request for proposals for the majority of the stadium to be converted into loft apartments, condominiums and retail space, with approximately 8,000 seats remaining.

The envisioned plans included recreation centers, a swimming pool and ice skating rinks. The new plan follows that request, says planning department spokeswoman Sylvia Crawford.

Carl Corlley of Nonrahs and David Sinacola of the Sinacola Cos. of Livonia, MI have told the city that they will acquire $200 million in financing from UBS Warburg with the help of financing consultant Macan USA Inc. of Houston.
