The downtown nightclub Live, at the corner of First and Huron streets, reopened Friday under new ownership after undergoing some renovations. Photographer Chris Asadian captured these images.
The new management is celebrating the reopening with no cover charge this weekend; doors open at 9 p.m. tonight. Entertainment at the club is expected to be primarily DJs on weekend nights, plus some live music on other nights. Some live entertainment is also planned at the smaller adjoining club around the corner, now renamed The Last Word.
