Startup companies contributing to Pontiac's comeback

PONTIAC, Mich. – Many people in Metro Detroit hear "Pontiac" and think of the Silverdome, forgotten and left to rot. The Silverdome often serves as a symbol for a city that's seen years of job loss and declining population.

But the new Pontiac has startup businesses coming in and new jobs are being created.

Local 4 business editor Rod Meloni was in Pontiac Thursday to talk about the big day for the city.

Slowly, but steadily, Pontiac is headed toward a comeback. You can see Rod's full story in the video posted above.
