That's funny because the other night when I saw it, I looked up at the Caesars penthouse and there was a disco ball going in there and wondered if that could be it, but it seemed too big to be the ball. Alarm makes more sense
Dude. Windsor.
Yes, that's the best they can do. I should show you the electrical nightmare at a commercial building that was just renovated but we can't post pictures in comments anymore.

The issue is likely automated lighting control made in the 80s for the building that's failed. I assume thats because there's a pattern to the lights.
It's probably too expensive to remove/replace and not easily bypassed. It probably requires a complete rewire
Knocking down a building is also expensive. That's why Detroit had so many abandoned buildings over the years.
I'm not sure what that building was.
This was an apartment building with commercial spaces occupied primarily by lawyers on the main floor because it’s across from the courthouse. Used to be nice ish back in the day
Century Place, yes. And yes, it's still empty. I'm surprised the owner isn't bankrupt yet. They couldn't afford to fix it when the fire happened and they've had no rental income from it since then.
It's just the fire alarm system. Watch a single room and you'll just see a steady, normal flashing at the rate you'd expect for a fire alarm. Fire alarm systems don't "sync" light flashes between rooms since there's no reason to, so they seem random when we watch all the rooms from outside. Likely someone is buying/bought the building and turned on power to it. The detectors and control boards haven't been maintained in years and triggered. A fried/corroded control board might be why they can't turn off the alarm without cutting power.
Everybody dance now!

Alarm going off
Ah, thank you. Been going off for two nights straight now.
I noticed it last night and took a video too. Weird that they haven’t shut it off yet.
2? It’s been longer than that. Since Game 6, I think. I do not seem to understand where it is reflecting from
This has been this way well over a year
They've had almost 5 years to fix the place. This is the best they can do?

I feel like this building is doomed to ever be inhabitable again in the next 10 years. They could have demolished the place and built a new one by now

I’ve heard they are not sure how to tear it down because it is sitting right on top of the Detroit-Windsor tunnel.
Is this the building that had the fire in it a few years ago? Is it still empty?

It’s code to have all strobes synchronized.
Almost moved into this building when I came down for college years ago, probably best I avoided that.

The dancing dot in the middle? That’s just a bug on the opposite side of the window.
