Commercial Demolitions

The Commercial Demolitions program is managed by the Construction and Demolition Department (CDD) and was established in 2014 to address the unique circumstances of commercial demolitions. Before entering the demolition pipeline, structures are selected by the Detroit Land Bank Authority (DLBA) or get approval from the Detroit City Council. Structures identified for commercial demolition include vacant retail, industrial, and multifamily (4 unit and above) residential properties deemed unsuitable for stabilization and rehabilitation. This dataset provides information about structures as they move through the demolition process. It includes where the structures are located, along with key dates, costs, and the different stages of the demolition process. Data is pulled directly from the City of Detroit’s Salesforce CRM (Customer Relationship Management) system daily and include structures that are in the demolition pipeline, under contract for demolition, and that have been demolished.

The goals of the commercial demolition program are to contribute to the health, environment, and beauty of Detroit by tackling commercial blight and preparing previously blighted properties for new uses and investment. Beginning in 2022, the main source of funding for the commercial demolition program has been the ARPA (American Rescue Plan Act).
