“Dan Gilbert, whose affiliated companies own more than 30 buildings and 7.5 million square feet of real estate in downtown Detroit, said the city’s apparent move toward bankruptcy is a ‘first step toward a better and brighter tomorrow for our city.’ His full statement is below. The Quicken Loans founder, a self-described optimist, has been investing in Detroit at an unrelenting clip for at least the past three years.  Gilbert’s umbrella company, Rock Ventures, which includes some 75 companies, now employs about 9,200 people in downtown Detroit, and has a total workforce of about 15,000 employees nationwide.”
