Some big news in downtown Detroit development, as there's word of changes with the plans for the District Detroit to focus on residential, pausing plans for an office tower next to Comerica Park.
And then we get into a discussion about the idea of capping or putting a cover over I-75 in downtown Detroit over by Brush Park, Foxtown and more.
A little over $4 million is being deployed by the Federal Government to study the idea as part of a Biden administration plan to reconnect communities split by freeways. Plus, we start the show debating whether booze should be at laundromats.
The rundown:
02:16 - Booze at the Laundromat?
05:04 - District Detroit moves focus to residential
11:27 - Should we cap I-75 in Downtown Detroit
