Communities speak out about the demolition of

historic Detroit Chinatown building

A 140-year-old Detroit historic building (3143 Cass Ave) was razed Saturday morning despite many calls for the demolition process to be halted and a unanimous city council vote that went unheeded. Built in 1883, the Cass Avenue building was one of the last relics of a time when Asian-owned businesses, a majority of them with roots in China, thrived in downtown Detroit. Home to the Chinese Merchants Association and other groups, the building served as a gathering space for cultural events, such as weddings and movies, and even hosted a health clinic for immigrant families. Members of the Asian American community in Metro Detroit came together Monday to condemn the demolition of the former site of the Chinese Merchants Association.
