  • Cobo Authority Nets $2 Million Through 5 Months of Fiscal Year Beats Budget by 79 Percent
    News April 12, 2013 Contact: Phil Frame 313-964-4447 Cobo Authority nets $2 million through 5 months of fiscal year Beats budget by 79 percent DETROIT – A combination of higher operating and parking revenue and lower-than-expected expenses helped the Detroit Regional Convention Facility Authority exceed its net income projection by 79 percent through the first five months of its fiscal year. The DRCFA, which operates Cobo Center, had net income of more than $2 million from Oct. 1, 2012, through February 2013 – beating the forecast by $891,000. The Cobo Authority’s budget anticipated net income of $1.1 million for that period. “We won’t be able to keep the same pace in the next few months, but it’s great to have this cushion,” said Patrick Bero, CEO/CFO of the DRCFA. Most of the higher revenue came from Cobo Center operations, especially proceeds from the North American International Auto Show and additional bookings in the early part of the year. Operating revenue of nearly $4 million exceeded the forecast by almost $314,000. Parking revenue was $1.8 million through February, exceeding the budget by more than $226,000. After completing renovations of the Congress Street and Washington Boulevard garages in 2012 while rooftop parking remained open, Cobo Center has had all of its 2,000 parking spaces available. Parking revenue during the North American International Auto Show was higher than expected, while the return of National Hockey League action at Joe Louis Arena provided revenue that could not be anticipated because of the lockout.

  • New Attitude
    New Attitude VOLUME 8 ISSUE 2 FEBRUARY 2018 Pure Detroit opens in Cobo Center for the auto show Pure Detroit has grown from the ground up, thanks to community support for 20 years. The first Pure Detroit store opened on Thanksgiving Day in 1998 in the David Whitney Building downtown. Since then, Pure Detroit has grown to five locations, each located in landmark Detroit buildings: the Fisher Building, the Guardian Building, the GM Renaissance Center, the Strathmore, and the Belle Isle Aquarium. “A Pure Detroit Shop on the Cobo Center concourse, open for all events, will connect visitors from all over the world to the culture and hospitality of Detroit,” said Claude Molinari, general manager of Cobo Center. “It is another big step in making our customers feel that Cobo is ‘Centered Around You,’ and immersing them in our mission to deliver outstanding event experiences.” Pure Detroit's mission is multi-faceted. As urbanists, they strive to help create vibrant ground-level retail activ- ity in downtown Detroit. As proprietors, they seek to provide a touching point for residents and visitors to the city for Detroit's rich history and contemporary culture. Cobo Center Bees Hunker Down for the Winter on the Green Roof Honey bees in the Cobo Center hives adjacent to the green roof prepare for winter by gathering a surplus of honey and pollen. They form a big group hug (or a winter cluster) to keep the queen warm once temps start to drop. The honey bees use this group hug to keep the center around 85 degrees! The heat is created by the bees vibrating their wing muscles.
