This is pretty big news for an AI and Robotics company to move from Austin to Detroit. Granted the owner grew up in the D. This house is pretty amazing but kind of run down. But he is planning on investing $5 million to restore it.

Former Detroit Pistons star, John Salley, of the 'bad boys' era first bought this place from the church. He wanted to do movies after he was done playing basketball. He would invite movie stars, script writers and directors to live in the various bedrooms and that is how he built his network which is pretty shrewd.
