On today's show, Norris and I are diving deep into the high-stakes redevelopment plans for the Renaissance Center and the nearby east riverfront, looking to transform 35 acres that has been sitting mostly quiet for many years.  After going to their preview center and attending the first of a number of weekly CBO meetings, we ask and react honestly the big question on everyone's mind: what do you actually do with a massive waterfront complex that's currently only 5% occupied? What vibes did we get from the community? And what's next? You can also learn more about the project here, and give your feedback to them: https://detroit-riverfront.bedrockdetroit.com/ Also as Metro Detroit's one of America's greatest news towns: We also quickly talk through the disturbing Christian nationalist march targeting Dearborn's Muslim community. We'll dig into it more on the show in a future episode. Plus, I break down a press event I attended at the Wright Museum outlining a proposed regional millage to keep Wayne and Oakland County's core historical institutions funded for the next decade.  It's a packed episode of your Daily Detroit covering the economic, political, and cultural shifts shaping Metro Detroit right now.

To recap the Aug. 4 primary elections, MIRS sits down with Lansing-based Andrea Bitely – a moderate Republican – and Democratic Socialist Jessica Newman, a political operative in Ferndale (1:30).  How will Democrat U.S. Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed try to connect with Detroit seniors, Macomb County's pro-Trump autoworkers and "Reagan Democrats", and the pre-Trump Republicans in white collar Oakland County? Also, what might be Republican U.S. Senate nominee Mike Rogers' courting strategy to win Democratic voters who wanted Congresswoman Haley Stevens (D-Birmingham) to win the primary? Additionally, they discuss who might vote YES on summoning a state Constitutional Convention in November, and whether Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, Democrat nominee for Governor, is prepared for a "fire hose" of negative ads from Republicans.

Abdul El-Sayed is going to be the Democratic nominee for Senate in Michigan, but the victory was much closer than it looked when I initially planned to call it. With 23 percent of the vote counted, Haley Stevens was barely leading in Oakland County, which she represents in Congress, and the outstanding votes appeared to favor El-Sayed. I thought he was heading toward an eight-to-ten-point win. Instead, the margin narrowed to about 1.4 percent. Barring some miraculous vote drop out of Detroit, El-Sayed wins, but this wasn't an overwhelming progressive victory.The polling miss is the polling miss. Congressional polling is never the most reliable. What's strategically telling is that much of the expectation for a blowout came from El-Sayed's own campaign, which released internal polling showing him ahead by 15 points. That obviously didn't happen. Can you question the wisdom of releasing those numbers? You can. You can question that wisdom.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.I still got my prediction wrong. I picked Stevens by five, so allow me to eat the mistakes. My prediction was closer to the final result than El-Sayed's internal polls, but a loss is still a loss. I believed Mallory McMorrow's female voting bloc would break more heavily for Stevens. I said from the beginning that McMorrow would decide this race; I just didn't realize it would be her ghost bridging the gap between the other two candidates.El-Sayed started this three-way dance as the owner of the progressive lane, and he owned the issues that mattered in Michigan. It didn't matter how folksy the Stevens campaign tried to make her. El-Sayed won, the establishment lost, and progressives deserve to celebrate. Raise a PBR and let your tears stain your unused college degree. Progressive listeners can dance on my shame because they've earned it.But the lesson for progressives is the opposite of what it was on The Real World: They need to stop getting real and start getting polite. Their movement isn't overwhelming. I don't care how fired up Michigan is about Israel, Medicare for All, or any other progressive policy. El-Sayed needs Haley Stevens voters if he's going to defeat Mike Rogers. He needs to reach out and say, “Let's stick it to ‘em… together,” because progressives aren't going to get there by doing it exactly their way forever.This is still a big day for progressives, but the final margin changes what it means. It wasn't proof that they can squash the establishment on their own. It was proof that they can win a close primary and then immediately need the people they just beat. Celebrate the victory, take the lesson from the margin, and rerack for the general election.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro and Updated Michigan Thoughts00:03:10 - Progressives and the Establishment00:12:37 - Evan Scrimshaw on 2028 Democratic Primaries01:18:44 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Is now a good time to move to Metro Detroit? In this video, I break down the latest Southeast Michigan housing market data using Realcomp MLS numbers through May 2026 and explain what it actually means for buyers, sellers, and relocation clients considering a move to Michigan.Inventory is rising across Metro Detroit, buyer leverage is starting to improve, and each county is telling a very different story. Wayne County offers some of the strongest affordability in the region, Oakland County remains one of the most established suburban markets, Macomb County is showing some of the strongest growth, Washtenaw County continues to command a premium around Ann Arbor, and Livingston and St. Clair County offer more space and lifestyle tradeoffs.If you're relocating to Michigan from another state, this video will help you understand where your money may go further, which counties fit different lifestyles, and why Metro Detroit is not one single housing market. The right move depends on your budget, commute, schools, lifestyle, and long-term goals — not just what shows up first on Zillow.

Oakland County Offers Robust Talent Development Solutions - Aligns with Business

In Metro Detroit, it's not enough to talk about transit plans. There are tons of ideas out there. It's about action. I sat down with SMART General Manager and CEO Tiffany J. Gunter to dig into what it really takes to run a 2,000‑square‑mile suburban transit system that people can rely on. We get into the essential stuff: on‑time performance, keeping buses maintained and in service, and why Tiffany started by "going back to basics" while also upgrading shelters, adding Wi‑Fi, and insisting on more dignity for riders. We also also talk about the culture shift of running transit in a region dominated by the car, the 30% rise in ridership SMART is seeing, and how free student rides and better communication are building a new generation of riders who don't see the bus as "for someone else." You'll hear how Oakland County's all‑in vote opened the door for SMART's first new routes since the 1990s, why microtransit in places like Pontiac and Dearborn is exploding, and what's at stake as Wayne County voters consider going all‑in this August. Tiffany also explains why she rides the buses herself, why collaboration with DDOT and the Transit app matters, and where autonomous vehicles actually fit — as a last‑mile tool, not a silver bullet like many may think. If you care about where Metro Detroit's economy and talent go next, this one's worth the ride. As always, feedback welcome at dailydetroit - at - gmail - dot - com or leave a voicemail at 313-789-3211.  If this is your first time here, be sure to follow the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Transit in Metro Detroit is at an inflection point. We talk with Transportation Riders United executive director Megan Owens about the new Wayne County‑wide transit millage, what an extra eight bucks a month could unlock, and how our region invests less in buses than almost any big metro in America. The vote is crucial for the future of transit as it would finally opt-in all communites in Wayne County to transit, similar to how most places nationall work. If it fails, we could lose what service we do have.  They dig into Lansing's latest budget "switcheroo," how Oakland County's all‑in vote reshaped service, and TRU's upcoming Round‑the‑Mitten tour to prove you really can ride public transit from Detroit to Marquette.

A black bear near Flat Rock, a massive water main break in northern Oakland County, and one of Detroit's most talked‑about restaurants changing course all add up to a busy epsiode. We start with Norris History Month updates and a few fun picks, from Deluxx Fluxx and SPKRBOX to a Mother's Day dinner at Bar Pigalle in Brush Park. Then we dig into reports of a possible black bear sighting in southern Wayne County, what the DNR says to do if you see it, and why "you cannot knock out a bear" no matter what social media tries to tell you. There's a days‑long water outage and boil advisories after a 42‑inch main ruptured in Oakland County, what it says about aging infrastructure across Metro Detroit — and why sprawl is making the bill for repairs so steep for a region that hasn't actually grown in population since the 1970s. And finally, news that Marrow is consolidating into its Eastern Market location and leaving West Village and Birmingham, what that means for the restaurant scene, and the business reason why some "regional play" concepts end up gravitating to greater downtown. If you're dealing with the outage, seeing the development shifts up close, or just have thoughts on where this region grows next, let's hear from you!
