A Brief History of the Beloved Braun Court
Sandi Smith and Linda Lombardini purchased 323 Braun Court in 2008, contributing to the vibrant culture cultivated by the renowned businesses that kept Braun Court bustling in years past. The courtyard served as an unofficial gathering place for impromptu celebrations, such as the Supreme Court decision overturning Michigan’s same-sex marriage ban on June 26, 2015, as well as a memorial for tragedies like the Pulse Nightclub shooting in 2016. CBS News Detroit recently interviewed Sandi and Linda in Braun Court, underlining the significant impact the safe space has had on the LGBTQ+ community and Ann Arbor as a whole.

"The unique commercial space has long been in decline, but for decades it served as an informal outdoor community center, a hive of queer nightlife and a hub of LGBTQ+ entrepreneurship. Standing in the quiet, shady courtyard today, one would be hard-pressed to conjure the sights, sounds or even the smells of a once-bustling space that evolved into a nexus for queer community in a city that has wrestled with queer acceptance, despite a long-held reputation as a progressive Midwestern haven."
