The home run heard around the Great Lakes, New urban forest and trail + more

Show notes

Today's show is in two parts.

First, we catch you up on four stories around town:

  • Detroit City Council member Fred Durhal III has launched an exploratory committee for a potential mayoral run.
  • Detroit’s three casinos have mixed results this month.
  • Today is move-in Day for Ford Employees at the renovated Michigan Central Station.
  • Circle Forest, a 1.3-acre urban forest and trail, was unveiled this week in the Poletown neighborhood. More: https://www.arbdetroit.org/circle-forest

Then Fletcher Sharpe talks about the home run heard around the Great Lakes as Kerry Carpenter knocked it out of the park in Cleveland to help the Tigers even the series; The Dallas Cowboys are next for the Lions in a winnable game for the Honolulu Blue; and yes, the Pistons are playing again. And they won!
