The Metro: Detroit Metro Airport might be getting a cigar lounge

We’re celebrating a belated Valentine’s Day today and bringing you a conversation with some people we love, The Detroit Documenters. They train and pay residents to cover local government meetings in Southeast Michigan, improving our access to public information. 

They’ve been appearing on The Metro every Friday, but you’ll now be able to hear conversations with Producer Jack Filbrandt and the Detroit Documenters every Monday. 

Today on The Metro, we bring you a conversation with Detroit Documenter Madeline Beck and Coordinator Noah Kincade on a potential cigar lounge coming to Detroit Metro Airport. The cigar lounge won’t be hard to miss, located just past security at the McNamara Terminal between gates A43 and A45. To many, this is a drag — so we discuss why.
