Beat me to it! Anyway, this is great news. Downtown has been lacking in coffee shops for a while, but hopefully this opening and Chez Zara opening in the M@dison building will help. Dan Gilbert just keeps it going. Anyone know a way we can clone that guy?

YAY Dan Gilbert!

You're brining some N.Y.C. coffee plant to your Gilberttown area.

APPLAUSE, APPLAUSE!

Now can you please bring an Apple Store to one of your rehabbled buildings in the former Telenews [[Club Bleu Building) in Woodward. I would be appeciated.
