District Detroit Disappointment and Michigan's Senate Primary Heats Up

On today's Daily Detroit, we start with why District Detroit still looks like a sea of parking lots instead of the neighborhoods we were promised — and why that matters for the city's "front lawn" everyone in Michigan sees. We talk about our thoughts on this article in the Freep: https://www.freep.com/story/money/business/2026/06/25/district-detroit-construction-slow-pace/90594507007/ Then we dig into the Democratic U.S. Senate primary: Haley Stevens, Mallory McMorrow, and Abdul El-Sayed, their strengths, their blind spots, and what a "change election" could mean for Michigan and Detroiters on the ground.  Along the way, we hit some lighter notes: summer lunches at old favorites like Tony V's, Checker Bar, and pho at Pho Lucky, plus a nod to Jobbie Nooner and a goodbye from the Pistons to Beef Stew.
