Today’s feature conversation is about a proposed downtown Warren concept, that would transform land next to Warren’s city hall into a hotel, 500 apartments, dining and restaurants.

Plus some news stories around town:

We now have the cost to rebuild I-75 in Troy, plus how long it’s going to take.

The new greenway that will be finished later this year down the old Jos. Campau from Jefferson to Vernor has a proposed name – the Dennis W. Archer Greenway. I also share some details on the project in case you’re not familiar.

Royal Oak’s Social District is opening this weekend, letting you take to-go drinks around downtown Royal Oak near Main Street.

Stay as dry as you can out there. We had a record rainfall for July 16, 2021 – 2.13 inches. You know, we’re supposed to get 3.16 the entire month of July.
