El Pulso: Weekly News from EL CENTRAL
Latino Political Presence Grows Downriver; Cabrini Clinic Provides Free Care; Broderick Manor Reopens
In this week’s edition of EL PULSO , Lincoln Park’s growing Latino community is becoming more visible in local politics as Michigan voters begin casting absentee ballots ahead of the November 3 election. We also visit St. Frances Cabrini Clinic in Corktown, where uninsured adults can receive free healthcare regardless of immigration status. The clinic, founded in 1950, is preparing for the possibility that more Detroiters could need its services. In Southwest Detroit, Broderick Manor is occupied again after spending years vacant and once facing demolition. A roughly $10 million restoration brought 56 apartments back to the neighborhood near Clark Park, while raising familiar questions about affordability as investment grows. Plus, Wayne State University’s Center for Latino/Latina and Latin American Studies welcomes Dr. Nathalia Jaramillo as its new director, and we look at the new pedestrian and bicycle path connecting Detroit and Windsor across the Gordie Howe International Bridge. And in sports, Justin Verlander says goodbye to baseball at Comerica Park, while Detroit City FC battles to a scoreless draw at Keyworth Stadium.
