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

Former state rep suffers spinal cord injury after bicycle hits unmarked pipe

A former Michigan state representative was in critical condition early Friday afternoon, Nov. 13, at a local hospital after hitting an unmarked sewer pipe in Orion Township while riding his bike, according to local officials. Former Republican State Rep. John Reilly, 68, was biking to a local church early Wednesday, Nov. 11, when he hit a pipe that lay over the sidewalk on North Axford Street near the Orion Township post office. He suffered a spinal cord injury, two fractured vertebrae and a brain injury, according to Orion Township Supervisor Chris Barnett. The Oakland County Sheriff's Office's Crisis Response Unit documented the scene and is investigating the circumstances of the crash, according to Tyler Sweers, an agency spokesperson. John Reilly's wife, Karen Reilly, said her husband was biking to St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Lake Orion, where he leads a men's Bible study on Wednesday mornings. She said her husband "snapped his neck back" when he crashed. "There were no cones or anything around" the pipe, said Karen Reilly. Barnett said the pipe was part of an Oakland County Water Resources Commission project that began Oct. 26 and was supposed to be done that week. Barnett said he "didn't know

Predictions: Michigan State football vs. Washington

Angelique S. Chengelis, Connor Earegood, John Niyo, and Bob Wojnowski of The Detroit News predict the outcome of Saturday's Michigan State-Washington game at Spartan Stadium in East Lansing (4:15 p.m., Big Ten Network/760 AM) . ▶ Angelique S. Chengelis: Most expected MSU head coach Pat Fitzgerald would have his Spartans fired up for the annual in-state rivalry game against Michigan, and he did. The Spartans have not made winning a habit — yet — but considering the number of injury setbacks, Fitzgerald still manages to get them to play hard. The Spartans need to win out to reach bowl eligibility and that starts with Washington, which has had it shares of struggles during Big Ten play (the Huskies are 2-4). Michigan State will have to duplicate its defensive performance and also its run game from the Michigan game, and will have to generate touchdowns, although Liam Boyd's five field goals certainly were enough last weekend. Pick: Washington, 20-16 ▶ Connor Earegood: What will make MSU's win over Michigan even sweeter is if the Spartans can turn this momentum into a bowl game. That's the marching orders heading into this game against Washington, where a mobile quarterback in Demond Williams Jr.
