DETROIT-Here’s the latest plan for a piece of property next to the Michigan State Fairgrounds–a 251,000 sf outlet mall. The land in question, about 34 acres along Eight Mile and Woodward, adjacent to the state fairgrounds, is owned in part by developer Joseph Nederlander, who is asking Detroit to rezone the land to pave the way for the proposed mall.

Over the years, a variety of plans have been put forward for the land, including one by Nederlander, a well-known Detroit developer, to build a race track on the property. That plan was shot down by neighbors concerned about noise issues.

The Detroit planning commission is to hear Nederlander’s zoning request at an April 15 meeting.
