It looks like there's a new Detroit-style pizza place opening downtown.

Show notes

On Griswold near Capitol Park, we spotted a big red neon sign in the window reading "Unc's" — and it's for a Detroit-style pizza concept opening in one of the neighborhood's more extensive building renovations.

It's in the former United Savings Bank which had received a gnarly 70s makeover that removed most of the windows — but is now undergoing a glow-up with an art-deco inspired facade (and two stories) added on.

They've launched an Instagram (@uncspizza) but haven't posted anything or announced an opening date yet.

If you know more, let us know!
