During an interview with Crain's reporters, Peter Cummings, executive chairman and CEO of Detroit-based The Platform LLC, said his company and other members of the iconic New Center area high-rise's ownership group have been interviewing prospective buyers the past two weeks and expect to finalize which one moves forward to put the property under contract and enter due diligence. In addition to the Fisher Building, Cummings also discussed the state of the residential market, his company's ups and downs since its inception, and the state of Opportunity Zone financing, among other issues.
