Welcome to Wednesday, everyone! The prince of Detroit's Brightmoor returns for today's show.
We do a little debate debrief of the presidential candidates' debate, with an emphasis on the impact on Metro Detroit, particularly regarding immigration and community concerns.
The conversation then shifts to a significant local development project: The transformation of the former Kmart headquarters in Troy into Somerset West, a mixed-use development planned with 750 residential units, office space, retail, and a University of Michigan health facility. We discuss the potential impact on Oakland County and the broader Metro Detroit area.
We address the potential departure of Detroit Police Chief James White for a mental health agency role, speculating on the future of the Detroit Police Department and the city's leadership.
Lastly, we read off some listener feedback! Some people agree with Norris on his feelings about pickup trucks the importance of branding to raise awareness of nonprofit initiatives.
