A Huron River shoreline clean-up is taking place in downtown Ypsilanti this weekend. It’s put on by the owner of 2 West, the planned musical ecosystem in the old Materials Unlimited building in Ypsilanti. WEMU’s Josh Hakala reports.

After nearly 50 years, the historic downtown Ypsilanti building that housed antique store Materials Unlimited has new ownership. That new owner gathered a variety of musicians, artists, and community members to unveil her plans for a music venue that she calls her “love letter for Ypsi”. WEMU’s Josh Hakala was there.

After 50 years, an Ypsilanti antiques store will close its doors for the final time on Friday. WEMU's Josh Hakala reports.

The Ypsilanti antiques store, Materials Unlimited, will close its doors at the end of the year. As WEMU's Josh Hakala reports, city officials hope the music venue taking its place will become a destination.
