The interface is a lot better. But where is the parcel map? That, to me, was the best feature. A lot of properties I look up have no addresses, so I would use a known address as reference and find the building I was looking for with the map.
Maybe I'm just missing it? Also gone are the year built info as well as square footage.

Yes, it's an improvement, but it's still obviously in its infancy. About all it's good for at the moment is telling you the address of a building. It looks like they finally got around to fixing that outdated system, and using the software that pretty much every other city is using. I know here in Lansing it tells you how many floors the property has, square footage, and includes photos of every property. I suspect it will take a year or two to cover Detroit as large as it is.
