Welcome to your all-local daily news podcast serving Metro Detroit!
We kick off with the heartwarming news of a baby gorilla born at the Detroit Zoo, the first in nearly 100 years. Bandia, a first-time mom, and her baby are doing well, although the Great Apes building is temporarily closed to guests to give them a calm and quiet space.
Next, we discuss the upcoming opening of Primark's first Michigan store at Great Lakes Crossing Outlets in Auburn Hills. Set to open on September 12, the new location will offer over 36,000 square feet of retail space with the latest fashion trends, household essentials, and beauty supplies at affordable prices. Notably, Primark is known for paying fair wages, with sales associates starting at $15.25 an hour. Norris shares his experiences with Primark in Boston and London, comparing it to a larger, more affordable H&M.
In downtown Detroit, the Cadillac Square development, previously known as the Monroe Blocks, is facing delay. Dan Gilbert's Bedrock is expected to request an extension to begin construction. The revised plan includes fewer residences and office space but adds a concert venue. Jer and Norris discuss the implications of these changes and the potential impact on the area.
On the east side, Detroit is launching its first single-family waterfront home development in over 24 years at Shorepoint Village on Greyhaven Island. The project includes ten new homes with docks, high-end finishes, and 24-hour gated security, with prices starting at half a million dollars. The development aims to attract buyers from surrounding affluent areas.
