Aug 20th - Helicopter Activity

 

On Sunday, Aug. 20 from 7-9 a.m., there will be noticeable helicopter activity on Oakwood where the Ford Motor Co.'s Hub building is under construction (across from the Henry Ford Museum.)

These will be heavy lift helicopters setting 40 rooftop units on top of the building, so the noise and activity will likely be noticeable.

The activity has been approved by the City's building division.
