Description

Today's rundown on a Friday, from the David Whitney Building across from Grand Circus Park: - Longtime city activist, commentator and so much more Steve Hood has died. Go read a far better piece by someone remembering his friend here: https://deadlinedetroit.com/articles/28509/detroit_tv_host_and_activist_steve_hood_who_often_knew_the_real_story_in_politics_dies_at_58 - The World Economic Forum is opening an innovation centre in Detroit. Devon notes it's a big deal. We'll have a future episode focusing on it and what it all means. - DTE Energy is now offering $100 credit for people still without power as of last Monday. Is it enough? Should there be more? - Black Restaurant Week kicks off today. There are so many restaurants in so many places - many with curbside options - so go support some. https://fullofdetroitsoul.com/dbrw/restaurants - The Red Hook opens their new location on Jos Campau at Jefferson, at the foot of the Dennis W. Archer Greenway today.  - In Grosse Pointe Park, Brine Oyster Bar is opening to give a little New Orleans flair. It replaces the long-standing Janet's Lunch. - Don't forget there's the bourbon garden party in Grand Circus Park each Thursday.
