From humble beginnings at a Detroit club (now a laundromat) on Livernois and McNichols, DJ Stacey Hotwaxx Hale emerged as Detroit's first female house music artist, guided by her engineering background and inspired by her mother's groundbreaking work in federal government contracting in the 1970s. Known as the Godmother of House Music, Hale's masterful ability to play the right song at the right time has taken her from underground dance clubs like Studio 54 and The Warehouse to prestigious venues, including the Apollo Theater and Fox Detroit, where she continues to blend dance floor hits with orchestral melodies and live music, cementing her legacy in American music culture.

After burning for more than two days, a fire in a massive pile of mulch on Detroit's westside is now out. Detroit fire officials on Friday afternoon told WWJ firefighters left the scene of the fire — at the Detroit Mulch Company on Prairie Street, near Lyndon and Livernois — earlier in the morning, as the fire had been declared extinguished.

Football was the gateway that took Keith Williams to Eastern Michigan University, where his knack for sales soon took hold. In the 1980s, he was selling business forms and starting a printing company. We explore his transition from the Republican Party to help develop a farmers market of the Lodge Service Drive and Livernois. His love for Black people was his motivation. Keith opens up about a decision he regrets and discusses how politics is fundamentally about interests. He sees Black business and Black ownership as the primary interests at hand.

What does it take to run a bar and restaurant? When Owen Burke and his business partner Tony Piraino first ran a bar called Pulse in 2005, the building they were leasing got demolished by the city for future progress.  So they changed concepts, got a hold of a historic building in Greektown, and opened Firebird Tavern in 2013. A decade in one concept is quite the accomplishment in their industry. And recently, they expanded with a second location in Troy, Michigan. In this honest conversation at the Daily Detroit studio at TechTown, we talk about the ups, the challenges, and a lot more. Show notes: 02:21 - History of the building in Greektown and introductions 06:17 - Why do a second location in Troy? 06:44 - The harsh impact of COVID on business, and the long-term changes 08:02 - Traffic feels down in Downtown Detroit to 2008, pre-bankruptcy levels and patterns 10:51 - Extensive plans to convert Monroe Street to be more pedestrian friendly, thoughts and impact 11:51 - The timing of I-375 project matters and it's all interlocked 12:40 - Hard business lessons from the Avenue of Fashion closures on Livernois and businesses closed  13:39 - Lessons learned since 2005 on making a place go 15:06 - Everyone will bring you a Bud Light. What's different about your spot? 17:11 - On keeping staff 19:42 - Biggest changes in the Greektown neighborhood over the years 20:40 - Wrestling with negative headlines for Greektown and addressing issues late at night 23:47 - How important are events like the NFL Draft, Opening Day, and Super Bowl? 26:37 - General advice for others wanting to start a bar or restaurant 30:14 - What to order at Firebird Tavern 34:54 - How to get business? Answer the phone. Follow up. Build the events business. 39:21 - Online ordering is a multiple times the volume in the suburbs than the city. The volume is almost non-existent downtown; in suburbs, it's a key part of business 40:10 - Who thought we'd be paying with our eyeballs? And the fact credit cards are everywhere when a lot used to be cash. Patrons are driving that change, since so few use cash now, credit card companies come with fees.  43:26 - Hopes for 2024 Thanks to today's sponsor, City Bird: https://www.citybirddetroit.com/ (To be clear, they had no impact on the content of the episode outside of their ad read) Support the businesses that support us this holiday season.  Feedback as always - dailydetroit - at - gmail - dot - com or 313-789-3211 Follow us on Apple Podcasts: https://lnk.to/dailydetroitonapple Or Spotify: https://lnk.to/dailydetroitonspotify  hanks to our members: http://www.patreon.com/dailydetroit Or those who do a one-time contribution: http://www.buymeacoffee.com/dailydetroit  

I grew up in Detroit, and I learned to hustle. I was at 7 Mile and Livernois, and you had to hustle as a kid in Detroit. As a result, I relate to anybody who grew up in a tough section of town. My next guest knows all about that; Xavier Miller is the host of the Millionaire Mindsets Podcast.

Jer and Norris are back from Chicago - Jer talks about trying Jollibee for the first time, and Norris saw the final international match of Megan Rapinoe. Then we bring it back home, talking about the raid of a psychedelic church on Detroit's west side. Turns out local decriminalization doesn't mean the right to sell or distribute magic mushrooms. And finally, Motor City Brew Works closed their Avenue of Fashion / Livernois location after a short run. Jer remembers being at the opening. We talk about a number of factors that may have hurt this project from the start, and the difference between what might work on Livernois between 7 and 8 Mile and Midtown, Detroit.

Today we talked to Dan from Livernois and we also talked to Fikse about rims and what it takes to make a great rim.

Nous vous invitons à écouter la baladodiffusion de cette semaine qui s'intéresse au parcours politique du trifluvien Maurice Duplessis. Dans un premier temps, M. Livernois nous explique les origines du personnage, son ascension à la tête du Parti conservateur québécois, l'absorption de l'Action libérale nationale menant à la création de l'Union nationale et enfin de son premier mandat (1936-39). Nous explorons ensuite sa gouvernance et son « marketing » politique. Comment perçoit-il le Québec? Comment articulait-il la vision d'un Québec fort de sa paysannerie et celle d'un espace urbain et ouvrier? En troisième partie, M. Livernois présente l'héritage débattu de l'ancien premier ministre. Quelle place est-elle accordée aujourd'hui au trifluviens et quel héritage les gouvernements successifs reprendront ou critiqueront? Première diffusion le 19 septembre 2018 sur les ondes de CHYZ 94,3 (Université Laval)

This week we start with Dan from Livernois about tuning. Then Justin fields some calls about diesel issues, and we wrap it all up with the Swap Meet.

In this conversation we welcome the leader of 4i's business in the USA, Dr. Tom Alan-Livernois. I am honoured to be able to call Tom a dear friend, as well as a colleague and business partner. His wisdom, experience and qualifications are vast, deep and contemporarily relevant in so many ways. I'm delighted to be sharing this conversation with you.Dr. Tom's career has spanned extensive experience in marketing, advertising, leadership and developing leaders. His early career was primarily focused on bringing new services and products to markets, working across numerous sectors and industries bringing ‘first in market' offers to life. Having heard the call of purpose and pivoted to become a Leadership Educator, he first gained a Master's in Digital Marketing, then a Master's in Organisational Leadership and most recently a Doctorate in Organizational Leadership with an emphasis on development. His field of expertise in this are was focused on Virtual Work and Organisational Stress. Today, Dr. Tom leads our business in the USA and applies his expertise with our clients across the globe.Dr. Tom is a deeply compassionate student of the human condition and of the relationship between leadership and both human and organisational performance. His faculty for understanding causal Dr.ivers of behaviour and the specific developmental interventions required to enhance performance and outcomes lead him to be sought out by senior Executives and high performing organisations. He continues to break new ground in organizational outcomes and positive impact in the world.This conversation covers many elements of our work and our shared philosophy of leadership, as well as taking deep dives into several crucial areas of leadership today. If you are seeking to understand the definitive leadership traits of humility, tolerance and respect, why they are vital for successful leadership now and in the future, this conversation is worth making time for.If you are tight for time and want to tune in directly to the leadership segment, you can scroll forward to the 40-minute mark. I do highly recommend the whole conversation to fully appreciate Dr. Tom's background and perspective.Key out-takes from this episode;- We are often taught “this is the way it has to be”. Learn to question “is it?”- You have to name your part, what role you are playing in a system or context.- Impatience is the most selfish act one can perform- Humility is simply an admission that you're human. That you don't know everything, you can provide grace to somebody else and that you don't have to be the centre of attention.- A key tenant of servant leadership is altruism. Altruism is not simply about being and doing good but comes from evolutionary psychology of a member of the group being able to mediate anger or aggression to bring the group together to work towards a common goal.- That the greatest leaders are able to inspire people to work towards a shared vision is commonly accepted. What must be appreciated is that the only way we can inspire somebody is to have developed trust, have mutual respect for each other, as well as understand what mutual dependencies you have for each other, our unspoken contract.(Specific quote for QT The only way to inspire somebody is by building trust with mutual respect and appreciation for mutual dependence)- Do you truly understand why you want to be a leader?- What is successful leadership to you? Involves having a relationship with people. If you do reach successful leadership without having a relationship with people, it's likely to be short-lived.- To develop yourself and others as leaders, seek out learning that's simple, practical and immediate in application.- What we want to understand and help others to understand is what makes a better world leader- How can you build leaders that can deal with today, whilst moving towards their vision for the future?- Everything we do is built on purpose. That's the foundation stone.- When onboarding teams virtually, focus on aligning thinking, vision, values & purpose, and building a sense of trust quickly.- Much more about leadership is teachable than innate. If you have the vision, purpose and drive to become a great leader, you can learn how to do so.- Leading an organisation that is purpose-driven, values-led, resilient and adaptable is now a minimum requirement for success both now and moving into the future.- Consider how do you want to give back to the world as a leader? Not necessarily the world at large, but also your own world, your family or your community.(Specific quote – How do you want to give back to the world? How are you going to make a difference?Resources mentioned in this conversation;How will you measure your life? by Clayton M.

David Merritt, co-owner of Narrow Way Café, talks with Crain's Senior Editor Chad Livengood about how his northwest Detroit coffee shop has adapted to the COVID-19 pandemic on the Livernois Avenue of Fashion, which is undergoing a transformation with new investment in businesses and an overhaul of the street's design and traffic flow.

Si les débuts de la photo remontent à 1839, il ne faut pas attendre très longtemps avant que cette nouvelle technologie débarque dans la Cité de Champlain. En effet, l'année 1840 voit arriver des daguerréotypes – procédé photographique inventé par Louis Daguerre – dans la Capitale, pour la plus grande joie des curieux. Dans les décennies qui suivront, un milieu de la photographie se développe à Québec, milieu auquel un Livernois, un Vallée ou un Notman joueront une influence marquante. Lorsque le siècle se termine, on peut véritablement parler d'une « signature visuelle de la ville française ». Cette semaine, nous avons la chance de nous entretenir avec Pierre Lavoie, commissaire à l'entreprise de la Ville de Québec, et Patrick Altman, photographe, tous deux coauteurs de « Québec éternelle. Promenade photographique dans l'âme d'un pays ». Une heure durant, ils nous parleront certes de cette magnifique synthèse parue l'automne dernier aux Éditions de l'Homme, mais nous ferons également découvrir le milieu de la photographie dans la ville de Québec du XIXe siècle. Enregistré sur les ondes de CHYZ 94.3 FM le 23 janvier 2014. Image : La rue Saint-Jean en hiver, vers 1890. Jules-Ernest Livernois.

After bouncing around this town for a couple of decades, I can tell you that if you cover Detroit and ignore the faith community, well, you’re not covering Detroit. Regardless of the denomination or belief system, they are ties that bind much of our city and region. So today’s show is a conversation with pastor Jonathan Merritt of Straight Gate International Church. Located on Grand River just west of Livernois, the non-denominational gospel ministry has been switching gears to deal with the coronavirus. And the good news? Their mostly African-American congregation has been hit with far less tragedy due to the coronavirus than the rest of the surrounding community. So what are they doing? And how are they keeping connected to their members as one of the largest churches in the area? Also, Merritt is involved in the Narrow Way Cafe on Livernois. They are, for a second year in a row, dealing with outside forces that have thrown a wrench in their plans.

On today's show: The city of Detroit, DWSD and the State of Michigan have a new plan to turn on the water for Detroiters that's been shut off or prevent shutoffs to help keep COVID-19, or the Novel Coronavirus, at bay. We have details. A new poll doesn't look good for one Democratic candidate for president (link) The first recreational marijuana dispensary in Oakland County opened Sunday And, we meet Fred Paul. His new sneaker shop and exchange Fahrenheit 313 opens on the Avenue of Fashion on 3/13.  

The big beer news in town was that Atwater Brewery sold to a subsidiary of Molson Coors, Tenth and Blake. But why? And what's next? To take a look behind the deal, a talk with Atwater owner Mark Rieth. That conversation is at 7 minutes in. We also round up a few things happening around Michigan and Detroit: Tesla can now sell cars easier in Michigan, and service them through a subsidiary. That's big news. But there may be more to the story. Experts say that a dealer protection law that passed almost unanimously - and with bipartisan support - probably couldn't have withstood a true challenge in court. That would have major impacts as buyers are used to online and streamlined buying experiences, and more than 36,000 people are employed by Michigan's 600 or so franchise dealers. Here's a link to the Attorney General's announcement. Detroit's three casinos have record revenue. The Detroit River at Ralph C. Wilson park is going to get a big cleanup, as it turns out it's an "area of concern." The city of Detroit's property values have gone up 20% in the last year, says the city. But we give context. In 2008, it was worth $8.8 billion. In 2018, $3 billion. So although some progress, nowhere near a recovery to post-recession levels. McNichols (really, they should just call it 6 Mile) is getting a major streetscape facelift between Livernois and Greenlawn. Think the Fitzgerald neighborhood, just west of University Detroit Mercy.

On today's show: - Sven helps us understand the UAW/GM Tentative Agreement nearly 50,000 striking GM workers are reviewing - It looks like by 2024 I-375 in downtown Detroit will become a boulevard. It's the focus of our most recent piece on Detroit Public Television's One Detroit, and we break down our thoughts. Here's the DPTV piece: http://www.dailydetroit.com/2019/10/18/i-375-in-detroit-planned-to-become-a-boulevard-by-2024/ - The streetscape project on Detroit's Avenue of Fashion - Livernois - has suffered delays and now won't be completed until the spring. What does that mean? Here's an interesting piece in Bridge Magazine: https://www.bridgemi.com/detroit/can-detroit-businesses-survive-citys-push-walkable-neighborhoods - 7,000 pounds of apples were stolen up in Linden. A caper that is rotten to the core (sorry couldn't help the pun). - And Shianne talks about the winner of the Hatch Detroit contest.

The now-defunct Axle Brewing said it hoped to find a like-minded brewer to take over their gleaming Livernois Tap when it announced it was ceasing operations in June, and it appears to have found one in Eastern Market Brewing Co., which announced it will take over the gleaming brewpub and eatery in Ferndale they’re calling the Ferndale Project. According to the Freep, EMBC will rebrand the facility, which will allow them to triple — yes, TRIPLE — their brewing capacity. Also on today’s episode, we talk about Devin Myers, the guy from that viral guilty-of-being-black video of being questioned by police officers from Royal Oak after a white woman said he was suspicious. He faces charges from an unrelated incident allegedly fleeing the po-po. [Daily Tribune] We also talk about what’s going on with the project to convert I-375 in Detroit from an urban freeway to a surface boulevard with bike lanes, and one other little ditty about perseverence in Detroit. BONUS AUDIO: If you listen all the way to the end, I pull my leftover bottle of Axle’s Secret Meeting, a 13% ABV Baltic porter that was released way back in April. Is it still any good?

We previously told you about a project that would overhaul the Livernois streetscape, north of 6 Mile (McNichols) to 8 Mile. But it seems that things, at least for local businesses, aren’t going so well. Jonathan Merritt joins me on the show today to talk about what’s happening on the Avenue of Fashion. He says the project — though he’s excited about what it will bring — is putting many of the businesses in danger of closing, including his own, Narrow Way Cafe. Narrow Way opened in 2017 and has quickly become a neighborhood anchor. Beyond the immediate things happening on the Avenue, I took the time to talk to Merritt about being of service in the community and what that looks like. After all, he has a unique perch of the city and region as a Pastor at Straight Gate International Church, an entrepreneur, and now an author. His new book is “Step Out: Leave Your Impact On The World.”

Good Wednesday afternoon, and welcome to a super Detroit-y edition of your Daily Detroit. Today, we walked over to the Avenue of Fashion, where Mayor Mike Duggan came to speak about the streetscape redevelopment of a roughly 1-mile section of Livernois to calm traffic and make the commercial district more attractive to pedestrians and, hopefully, prosperous to business owners. Construction crews were already at work demolishing the 13-year-old median added by now-imprisoned former Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick. Plans call for narrowing traffic to one lane in each direction, adding 24-foot-wide sidewalks to encourage more outdoor cafe seating, and adding sidewalk-grade bike lanes separated from the road by parallel parking spaces. All good. But reporters at the groundbreaking announcement wanted to talk about the controversy swirling around Duggan and his ties to the Make Your Date nonprofit. The Freep reports today that Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel is looking into the nonprofit’s fundraising activities. So is the Detroit Office of Inspector General. Duggan has been linked to the nonprofit’s director, Sonia Hassan. Also on today’s episode: Ford is working on a major overhaul of its customer experience efforts, rolling out efforts like a new customer rewards program and new retail dealership concepts. [Autoblog] The nonprofit Friends of the Rouge needs volunteers to help with its annual Rouge Rescue cleanup May 18. Gov. Gretchen Whitmer has ordered flags to be flown at half-staff in honor of Judge Damon J. Keith, the civil rights icon and longtime federal judge who died last month. Check out our interview about Keith’s legacy with Detroit historian Ken Coleman. Little Caesars turns 60 today. Check out a sweet TV ad from 1985, below. Thanks for listening to Daily Detroit.

On today’s episode, we check in with soccer correspondent Fletcher Sharpe about Detroit City FC’s new coach, Trevor James, and what it means for the club as it prepares for its first (semi) season of professional soccer. Elsewhere, I-696 has now been almost fully reopened after the long delay following a labor dispute and problems encountered by cold and wet winter weather. In Warren, construction has apparently loosed a plague of rats on Jim Fouts’ fair city. Gov. Gretchen Whitmer traveled to the Affirmations community center in Ferndale today to sign her executive order prohibiting discrimination against gay and transgender state employees. Her directive goes farther than a similar order signed by Republican Gov. Rick Snyder during his waning days in office last month. Greta Van Fleet, the pride of Frankenmuth, will headline Saturday Night Live on Jan. 19. And we catch up on some key restaurant/bar openings and closings. Among them: Shimmy Shack is gearing up to open its brick-and-mortar eatery in Plymouth Township later this month. (Facebook) The Royal Oak nightclub Luna has closed its doors after 19 years of getting people really drunk. (Facebook) There’s a new Biggby Coffee on Livernois in Detroit (Daily Detroit) In Birmingham, Hunter House might be demolished for a five-story mixed-use development. (Hometown Life) And Woodbridge’s latest eatery is Japanese izakaya Katsu Detroit, with tatami-style tables up in front. (Eater Detroit) And in our “reads” section, check out this piece by Robin Runyan in Curbed Detroit about a Detroiter that’s rehabbing their childhood home they found on the Land Bank auction site.

This is Romy, and we have some good stuff for you today. Jay Rayford of Social Sushi catches us up on all of the changes in his social enterprise. He and his bigger team of four have been the champions of proving out your product through pop-ups! You will hear how they really built a large following before even opening their restaurant. And, after our interview, Social Sushi went on to win $150,000 toward their restaurant because the community was so inspired! And, as usual, we have a great song and Detroit artist for you to close out the show. We have a really great fun fuel for you today – super interesting. Our fun fuel today is from Natalie Hazen. What do you have for us, Natalie? (Fun Fuel) Transition Okay, can I just say that was super interesting! Wow, so good. It is amazing how sometimes dark circumstances can cause great creations to come forth! So, let's float on that note into my interview with Jay. Now, we were sitting in a busy little café, and the background music might be a little louder than usual, so lean on in here for my interview with Jay... Main Interview Jay: Yes so, super excited to be back with you again. So yeah so Social Sushi now, at this point has ... We have our building on Livernois and 7 Mile in a dynamic area that's full of homes from two, three bedroom homes all the way up to mansions all within less than a miles radius around where we're going to open. It's beautiful also because I live a few blocks behind the building as well. It's super exciting to be apart of the community in both ways both from a commercial perspective and residential. We've been doing house parties in the community as well so it's a way for us to one bring neighbors together that maybe haven't come together before and also for folks that live kind of like downtown or other areas that always like "I want to find out if like these awesome communities in Detroit, I hear about these neighborhoods but I've never had a chance to really explore them", it's an opportunity for them to come together too. By the way, this sushi's great like oh my God where you guys located? Oh actually we're on the corner, we'll be relocating around the corner. It's been an exciting journey to finally get to a spot where we have a great building. The folks that own the building are amazing people. They show up to all our events and things like that as well, so it's exciting to have that energy. We're hopefully going to be open around August timeframe. Romy: Of 2017? Jay: Of 2017 and we're pushing for that, definitely, want to get open this year even if I have to open a little bit later just to make sure everything is right but this year is definitely it for us. Romy: That's awesome. For the people who...
