Historic Brass Rail prepares to reopen with family traditions intact

PORT HURON, MI — Nearly 90 years after Helen David transformed her family's ice cream parlor into the Brass Rail, the historic downtown bar is preparing to welcome customers back for another Tom and Jerry season. The Brass Rail, located at 410 Huron Ave., is scheduled to reopen Wednesday, Nov. 18, following extensive renovations that took longer than originally anticipated. For Tony Abou-Ganim, a Port Huron native, longtime bartender and relative of David, the project is about preserving a family legacy and a tradition that has become part of the city's identity. In late 2025, Abou-Ganim partnered with local real estate developer Jimmy Radatz to purchase and restore the Brass Rail , returning the business to family ownership. Renovations uncover more than expected The bar operated during the 2025 Tom and Jerry season before closing Jan. 1 for renovations. The original goal was to reopen June 15, 2026 — the 89th anniversary of its founding. But renovations uncovered additional work that needed to be completed before reopening. "It turned into a much larger project than we originally envisioned when we ran Tom and Jerry's last season," Abou-Ganim said. The work included electrical, plumbing and heating and cooling upgrades, asbestos removal

5 Best Restaurants in Ann Arbor, Michigan You Need to Try Before Everyone Else Finds Them

Ann Arbor, Michigan — a city where the red-brick streets pulse with the footsteps of students and professors, where the Huron River winds through neighborhoods stitched with memory and hope, where murals bloom on alley walls and the scent of coffee, curry, and barbecue drifts through the air. Here, the architecture is a patchwork: Victorian homes with wraparound porches, glassy new towers, and the gentle sprawl of parks and gardens. Ann Arbor is a crossroads — of old-timers and new arrivals, of artists, engineers, and dreamers, of families who picnic on the Diag and musicians who busk beneath the sycamores.

Recent health inspections in some Northville restaurants found improper handwashing, improper food storage and more between September and November, according to Wayne County Health Department inspection reports. Many of the violations have been corrected. The presence of violations in a past inspection does not necessarily mean the establishment has the same violations today.
