The land where the house once stood was photographed Monday, Sept. 30, 2019.DETROIT - The demolition of a Detroit house owned by Michigan state Rep. Sherry Gay-Dagnogo is under investigation after it was mysteriously torn down nearly two weeks ago with no record of who did it.

The Free Press independently reviewed the city's data portal website and found no record of a planned or completed demolition of Gay-Dagnogo's property, at 14567 Minock St. "It’s a hole in the ground," she said."It’s clean. It was a professional company. It has an orange barricade around the big hole in the ground."

Adamo has torn down 3,397 houses for the city, totaling more than $56 million in work, according to records reviewed by the Free Press. "Any time one of our demolition contractors commits a serious violation, we act immediately to address it," Detroit Building Authority Special Projects Director Brian Farkas said at the time. In that instance, Adamo had"mistakenly knocked down a Land Bank-owned house at 5792 Holcomb that was also in the demolition pipeline but not the house under contract for demolition," Farkas said last year.
