The Dan Gilbert Empire continues to spread its wings in downtown Detroit.

The five-story school, which is connected to the casino by a pedestrian walkway, had been vacant for more than a decade, Crain's reports
Gilbert's folks plan to move its Jack headquarters and 140 employees from One Woodward Avenue to the second through fifth floors of the building in December, Crain's reports. The first floor will be used for retail.
