Farmington theater leans on upgrades, alcohol and the internet for resurgence

FARMINGTON — It's a cold and drizzly evening in early November, and Lucy Savoy is outside the Farmington Civic Theater. On the evening of Nov. 5, Savoy and her teammates on Clarkston High School's ski team made the trek to Farmington to watch ski documentarian Warren Miller's 2026 feature, "Days Off." The ski team crowded down the sidewalk with other moviegoers as they made their way into the theater lobby, which quickly filled up. "This is like a whole experience," said Savoy, 18. "They have booths and stuff, and it’s amazing. We’re really excited to go see the movie.” "Days Off" is just one of the special screenings at the Civic Theater that'll play this month at the quaint theater on Grand River Avenue in downtown Farmington. More than 25 years after the city of Farmington purchased the 1939 building to better control how it would be used, theater and city leaders are pushing to sustain it. The theater got an alcohol license earlier this year and recently installed new leather rockers from the Romeo Theater, another small-town theater that shut down earlier this year amid changing movie-goer habits. Officials have also discussed installing a pizza oven at the theater.

This Michigan Pizzeria Bakes Detroit-Style Square Pies In Steel Pans With Crispy Cheese Corners Everyone Wants

The cheese goes all the way to the edge of a blue steel pan, then bakes into a crunchy, caramelized frame. That frame is the whole reason people argue over corner pieces. Those pans reportedly came from car factories, where they once held nuts and bolts. Honestly, that might be the most Michigan origin story a pizza could ever have.

See how this 1917 home blends history with modern style

Kevin and Alexandra Schwartz can trace their 1917 Grosse Pointe Park Colonial to Edmund Poupard, a member of the prominent family that owned one of the 19th-century ribbon farms lining the shores of Lake St. Clair. Their house replaced the farmhouse that once sat on the lot. Vintage blueprints of the approximately 4,000 square-foot structure hang in the back hall near the kitchen and a book detailing the street’s storied past has a place of honor in the front hall. Kevin is from Flushing and knew little about the area when he began dating Alex, who is from Grosse Pointe. “I had no clue,” he said with a laugh. Alex never expected to return. “I went to college thinking I didn’t want to come back, but Grosse Pointe is a great place to have a family and raise kids.” The couple appreciates the history of both the area and the house, but shared a common goal when they purchased the residence in 2024 for their family, which includes two boys, ages 1 and 3, and a 7-year-old Irish Doodle named Guinness. “We wanted to preserve the history and incorporate pieces of Detroit’s past, but didn’t want to walk into something
