Schostak, Danou Team Up on Silverdome Plan

PONTIAC, MI-Schostak Bros. and Danou Enterprises team up on a joint proposal to redevelop the Pontiac Silverdome into an industrial park, retail center and 300-room hotel.

PONTIAC, MI-There’s a new team working on developing the Pontiac Silverdome. Schostak Bros. and Danou Enterprises are teaming up on a development plan for the stadium, which once was home to the NFL Detroit Lions.

Schostak and Danou had previously been working as competitors on a possible development plan. The two companies will now collaborate on Schostak’s previously announced proposal for a $300-million, 386,000-sf International Automation Center. Pontiac Mayor Willie Payne says the plan may work out well for the city, which owns the facility. “That merger addresses residential, business, technology and has a component for a civic center or a conference center and hotel,” Payne says.

The development team wants to use the Silverdome building to create a Pontiac Towne Center that is part industrial park and part retail center, with six restaurants and a recreation center. The dome would be removed and rebuilt to accommodate a 300-room hotel.
