Detroit firehouse water main break impacts homes, businesses near Wayne State

A water main break near Wayne State University in Detroit has forced the temporary relocation of Ladder 20, Squad 2, and a medic unit from a firehouse on West Alexandrine near Cass. The issue, compounded by a subsequent leak and a winter storm, has affected local homes and businesses, including Slow's BBQ, which had to close again due to the water shutoff. Repairs are underway, with city construction and water departments aiming to restore service by the weekend, while emergency response times remain unaffected.
