I’ve been around since the early 2000s when I was a teenager or a “young” Detroiter.

I, along with former Detroit radio personality Jazzy T, will be representing the city on a new reality show.

I will be making a number of references to Detroit on Funny Or Die Presents America's...

Greetings DetroitYes! forumers!

I wanted to share with you that I’ve been cast on a new competition reality show called Funny Or Die Presents America’s Next Weatherman.

During filming, I...

Is there any indication that the Detroit/Windsor border is an attraction for organized crime? While there are undoubtedly opportunists who would attempt to smuggle people or contraband between our...

My condolences to the family and friends of Jeff. My thoughts and prayers are with you. As a forumer who never had the privilege to meet DetroitPlanner, I am left with the memory of his thoughtful...

It's certainly a good PR move to have a more visible presence in the region's principle city. WXYZ/Action News will be closer to where a lot of the cultural and recent business news orginates.

The agent or officer was bluffing and using intimidation tactics. There's no legal basis for his comments about not taking photos of the bridge. That's one time that I wish I could've recorded the...

This reminds me of an incident that I had in December 2006.


I was driving along Fort St after leaving Mexicantown, and was struck by the view of the Ambassador Bridge at night. I pulled over...

Not far from the Evergreen/7-Mile Tim Horton's, they just opened one on 8 Mile, east of Telegraph. It's on the south/Detroit side, opposite of Sam's Club. It's beside an Omega Coney Island. The...

Detroit is notorious for being a fresh foods desert. Community members have increasing joined the effort to establish urban, neighborhood gardens. However, despite Eastern Market and urban gardens,...

I thought this thread was about me. ;)

Lowell, included Windsor in his "Detroit," which I like to do; but that got me thinking. Do Windsorites ever claim Detroit? Most Canadians know where Windsor is, but if traveling abroad are they more...

gthomas, my fellow Detroiter,

Thank you for continuing to share your ideas. I regularly read the forum, and every once in a while, a thread jolts me out of my writing hiatus and posting dormancy....

French 777,

Thank you for sharing your ideas with us. More than a few dear fogies abandoned the city and/or allowed her to deteriorate, so I wholeheartedly feel that it is up to us Generation...

I thought I was being summoned to this thread for a moment.

Great story. It is important for people to be [[or become) highly literate in order to expand their wealth of knowledge. It is also...

Very true. On Monday morning, I still had to drive to the MSU campus for a final exam, where there was at least a half foot of snow. I was late, as the 10-degree temperatures caused the air in my...

Indeed, Communication and Media Arts High School was founded in 1992. The first freshmen class of the newly established DPS school entered, in the Fall of 1992, in the building, which was formerly...

During Super Bowl XL weekend, WDIV broadcast its morning show from Campus Martius Park inside a temporary outdoor studio [[little more than a very fancy tent. But I was hoping that they'd continue...

Nikki,
I would argue that the Michigan Central [[Train) Depot is almost as iconic and recognizable as the Renaissance Center. While I don't have the same sentiment about the old Cass Tech building,...

Newdetroit,

It is chilling to read this post, because I vividly imagined the same thing just nights ago. It would entrench Detroit as a Midwestern entertainment mecca among residents and...

tallbay66 and jcole,

The show was about Detroit since the inception and from the beginning of storyline writing. However, the pilot [[the first episode) was filmed in winter before. The scenes...

Yeah, he's a great guy in person, and a triple threat, as actors call them. I stood by him for a week. I was in the Model T plant filming when the earthquake occurred in Canada. You could hear the...

I also thought that it was extremely rare to experience [[feel) an earthquake in Metro Detroit and have tornadoes during the same day. What a coincidence!

I was on Ford Motor Co. grounds near...

In its attempt at making murder, or solving homicide cases, entertaining, perhaps, Detroit will be perceived as "cool." Glamorizing crime, with the LAPD homicide code in the title, does nothing to...

Thanks for the updates.

The decade-old project looks even more at risk of falling through with this dismal economy, but their "[pushing] dirt around" is a bit promising. Any activity leaves a...
