Former Rock Venue Listed For Sale

Detroit’s former leading rock hall is for sale. The Grande Ballroom at 8952 Grand River has been listed for $5 million. It’s currently owned by Chapel Hill Missionary Baptist Church. In its glory days, the building hosted touring guests like Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and the Who, along with Michigan acts like the Frost, and MC5. The Grande is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and that status may offer a financial windfall to its developer due to the State Historic Tax Credit Program.
