Designers transform a blank basement into a retreat

For a Modern Tudor Revival home in Pleasant Ridge that the owners purchased as a new build, GHK Design Collaborative in Birmingham turned the unfinished basement into a destination space. “When you have a blank space like that, it’s really fun for designers to create what the flow is going to be. We gave them a couple different versions. It can be fun to show clients the options and get their feedback for the best function,” says principal designer Lauren Guidry, who was part of the team. “With the renovation, they wanted a space where they could entertain or have a comfortable movie night for the two of them,” she adds. “It had to supply multiple functions with a home office and a kitchen space.” The basement already had plumbing for a bathroom. “That worked out well. We started from there and branched out,” says Guidry. A new full bath features a custom vanity and floating shelves. The tile floor has a graphic starburst pattern. “It’s nice when they have guests over. They can use that space and the office could turn into a bedroom or incorporate a Murphy bed,” she explains. A white ceiling keeps the main areas nice

Troy aquatic center to be closed summer 2027 due to infrastructure issues

Troy will not open its aquatic center for the upcoming summer season because of infrastructure issues, and city officials are evaluating its long-term future, officials said on Nov. 5. In a lengthy post on Facebook, the city said the Troy Family Aquatic Center on Civic Center Drive, just north of Troy's municipal complex, will be closed in summer 2027 "due to significant infrastructure failures that require extensive repairs." The repairs will disrupt the city's ability to operate the facility, the post reads. The aquatic center in summer 2026 experienced "unsustainable" water loss due to multiple failures throughout the facility's aging underground systems. Minimum repairs to this system are estimated at $1 million, according to city officials. “Because repairs can only be done in the summer, the pool will be closed for the 2027 season," said City Manager Frank Nastasi in the post on Facebook. "We will keep evaluating its long-term future, and we hope community partnerships can be part of the solution.” The Troy Family Aquatic Center opened in 1992 and marked its 30th anniversary in 2022. It has a lagoon area, two water slides, and a dedicated toddler and youth area featuring a shallow pool, a 20-foot waterfall, a

Rochester Stoney Creek football beats rival Rochester Adams, wins district title

ROCHESTER HILLS — As if he was a golfer dreading a bad slice off of the tee, Stoney Creek senior quarterback Brandon Gergics had a bad feeling when he let the pass go. Stoney Creek was tied with rival Rochester Adams in the third quarter of a Division 1 district final on Friday, Nov. 6 when Gergics dropped back and fired a deep pass down the field toward junior teammate Jase Marcellin, but dreaded the pass initially. “I thought I pushed it out to the right,” Gergics said. “I’m just glad my guy is fast. He got to the ball. I thought It was a bad ball. I’m not going to lie.” It not only wasn’t a bad ball, it might have ended up being the most important pass in Stoney Creek history, as Marcellin ran under the ball, hauled in the pass and raced to the end zone for what turned out to be the winning score in a 21-7 win for Stoney Creek over Adams in a Division 1 district final.
