First Comerica Bank relocates their headquarters to Dallas, and now this is going to be Dallas-based! **
** In March 2007, Comerica Bank announced their corporate headquarters would be moved to Dallas. My quick skim of the Wikipedia article for Comerica and some further Googling reminded me of how surprising this was, given that the entity had:
- Originated as the Detroit Savings Fund Institute in 1849.
- Constructed from 1991 through 1993 their new headquarters in downtown Detroit, what was then named One Detroit Center (now Ally Detroit Center).
- Merged with/absorbed in 1992 Manufacturers National Corporation--also founded in Detroit [in 1933, by Edsel B. Ford].
- During 1998 signed a 30 year deal for naming rights to the then-new stadium for the Tigers, which has thus been known as Comerica Park.
I trust someone will chuckle at this post.
