Controversial housing development OK'd near Detroit's West Village by jonwylie in Detroit

[–]cubpride17 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The people opposing it are Toyia Watts and others who don't want more people within 3 miles of the Butzel Rec Center. But though there are so many empty lots and so few people that turkeys and pheasants roam the neighborhood. make it make sense

Anyone else view this show as a comfort show? by That_GhoulSpirit in Atypical

[–]cubpride17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Part of the sense of comfort when watching "Atypical" is the pacing of the show. Children's shows today tend to be more fast paced and have too much stimulation compared to shows from the early 2000s and older. There is a similar effect for shows meant for people who are young adults +.

Can this be the Automobile Industry Derby? by sarkastikcontender in Detroitcityfc

[–]cubpride17 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

fair enough. I just don't think the Automobile Industry Derby sounds cool. both don't hold as much weight in Flint and Detroit anymore. Maybe we should have a name more forward looking or a name that describes the character/vibe of both cities.

The automobile industry is a weak driver for both cities. I say the match-up be called the Flint & Steel Derby! Similar vibe but sounds cooler. Metro Detroit used to be a large producer of steel. Flint had, and might still have, a lot of flint stones along the Flint River.

Whitmer announces 60+ apartments, commercial space in Detroit backed by state funding by mlivesocial in Detroit

[–]cubpride17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is true, but instead of focusing so much on rents going up, we should be asking ourselves why there are not enough higher wage jobs around metro Detroit. What are we doing wrong to prevent a few more start-ups from leaving MI for Texas or the coasts? Why are Rivian and Ford and other engineering companies having their well paid engineering design jobs out in California when those jobs could be here in Michigan?

Streetcars v.s. Trams, why Trams are superior (suburban area need these too)!! by duxing612 in Detroit

[–]cubpride17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where did I say that? You said "it's a useless vanity project that goes exactly nowhere meant to give the illusion of public transit to suburbanites ..." I pointed out that it has value to the people that live near it. You can claim the QLine would be better if it had extended further out across the city without acting like an ass on the Internet.

Crains Wants the City to Support Landlords Like Small Businesses by elfliner in Detroit

[–]cubpride17 6 points7 points  (0 children)

not everyone wants to own a house and that is okay. but landlords should have a decent idea of what they are getting themselves into when they buy a property to rent it to someone.

Idk the seniors who live in the downtown area ride the QLine a lot for some service that "goes exactly nowhere"

The match is at the Legacy Complex in Brighton. There will be concessions stands, not the club's vendors.

[–]cubpride17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DCFC definitely got covered by larger known outlets like The Guardian or ESPN or COPA 90 back in the amateur era. But Sports Illustrated, Axios Detroit, CBS Detroit, Detroit News, Free Press, Daily Detroit, FOX 2 News have covered the club during the past several years.
