  *The Michigan State Fair Riding Coliseum, Dairy Cattle Building, and Agricultural Building are three buildings located on the grounds of the Michigan State Fair in Detroit, Michigan. They were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. These are the buildings threatened with demolition by Mayor Duggan’s promise to turn the Fairgrounds into a 142-acre industrial zone.
