Auto Industry in Ontario In Trouble

https://www.detroitnews.com/story/bu...p/85244309007/

What's left of the "Big 3" in Ontario as well as many parts suppliers is going away, likely for good. I've always bought Ford or GM vehicles but I certainly will make sure the next one is built in Ontario by Honda or Toyota. This is so entirely unnecessary because of the stupid Trump policies. He has announced over 300 changes to his own initial tariff statements since taking office. Canada buys more U.S. built vehicles then it sends there so tell me again why all this is necessary?

Detroit's Next Mayor, Worried Yet?

Articles like this one in the Freep today remind me how much better we have it under Duggan than most cities. He has staked out a very moderate position focusing on the benefit and growth of the cith rather than toeing the Democratic party line and bowing to the outrage mob. I am deeply concered about who will replace him and what their policies will be.

Last thing we need is a Mayor visiting Africa, even if the city's NOT burning to the ground...

Zug Island: AI Data Center

Thinking of future uses of Zug Island, which there are few other than steel, I wonder if they have ever considered an AI data center? It could be massive. The furnaces on "B" and "D" furnace were converted to Natural gas so they could even install a steam turbine to make their own electricity. Steel rots. The longer it sits there the harder it will be to ever use it to produce steel again. Hopefully something will become of Zug in the future.

Downtown Apple store to open this fall as a metro Detroit location closes

Downtown Apple store to open this fall as a metro Detroit location closes

The opening of the downtown Detroit Apple Store will coincide with the closing of another metro Detroit Apple retail store.

The California-based tech giant’s downtown Detroit store will open this fall, according to Apple spokesperson Pia Fontes. The store will run out of what is essentially three storefront spaces at 1430 Woodward Ave. near the Shinola Hotel.

The opening won’t signal an increase in the number of Apple Store locations in the state.

The Apple Store inside The Mall at Partridge Creek in Clinton Township will close this year, Fontes told Crain’s in an email. The Partridge Creek store opened in 2007. “At Apple, we're committed to delivering an exceptional experience for all customers, and we’re excited to open our new retail location in Downtown Detroit later this year,” Fontes said. “As we prepare to open, we will not continue our lease at Apple Partridge Creek.”

Fontes did not immediately respond to Crain’s request for more information. It is unknown exactly when the Detroit store will open or when the Partridge Creek store will close. It is also unknown how many employees will be affected by the closure. Fontes told Crain’s all the employees at the Partridge Creek store will have the opportunity to continue on with Apple at other stores.

McNichols vs Fenkell

In Detroit, McNichols is most often still called Six Mile [[which is still its name in western suburbs). But Fenkell is rarely, if ever, called Five Mile [[its suburban name). Both have long been renamed in the city, yet their common usage remains different. Why?

UM plans larger residential tower for downtown Detroit campus


The University of Michigan board is expected to consider a measure related to a new residential tower to be built next to its under-construction Detroit satellite campus, the University of Michigan Center for Innovation.

The Board of Regents meets virtually at 9 a.m. Thursday to consider a 40-year lease for the building that would house UMCI students and faculty. The residential building to be constructed at 2205 Cass Ave. at West Columbia Street is expected to have 313 units with a budget of $186 million, both of which are increases from previously released project details, according to a board briefing memo. Previously, the tower had been described as having 261 units and costing $147 million.

Crain’s has emailed spokespeople for the Ilitch family’s Olympia Development of Michigan real estate company as well as Related Cos., the New York City-based development company founded by Stephen Ross, which is also working on the District Detroit effort. Questions about the project were also sent to spokespeople for the university. The regents document says construction is expected to be complete in the fall of 2028, a year after UMCI — a graduate school-type campus focused on things like AI, robotics, cybersecurity and tech, among other things — opens in the fall of 2027.

Previously, a Related executive had said the UMCI and the residential tower would open at about the same time.
