If you’ve ever event spent any time outdoors within a mile’s radius of it — say, in Midtown or Eastern Market — then you’ve no doubt smelled the sickly sweet odor of the Detroit trash incinerator. Well, no more. Detroit Renewable Energy, the umbrella organization that owns and operates it, says it is shutting the incinerator down 33 years after it first fired up because of finances and complaints from the community. Operations will cease this week, but it’ll take up to 90 days to fully power the trash-to-energy facility down. Mayor Mike Duggan says he’s committed to making sure the site never again serves as a waste incinerator. What’s next for that property, which is owned by the city, isn’t yet clear. One novel idea comes from our friend Frank Nemecek over at the Warrendale Blog: Make every strip club in the city move there, like an amusement park of T&A.
