Discovering Detroit: A Visitor's Guide
Having called Detroit my home for a lifetime, I've always found it a challenge to decide where to take visitors from out of town. While Detroit might not be Chicago, New York, or Boston, it offers a wealth of hidden gems if you know where to look.
While the city has experienced its ups and downs, I firmly believe that Detroit's future is bright. The revitalized downtown area is just the beginning, with even more exciting developments on the horizon. For those with an entrepreneurial spirit, this city is a burgeoning hub of opportunity.
Here's my list of the top ten must-see attractions when you visit Detroit:
1. The Detroit Institute of Arts: Art enthusiasts should dedicate a day to this incredible museum, home to over 60,000 works by artists like Cezanne, Degas, Rembrandt, Rubens, and Warhol.
2. Belle Isle: This island park in the Detroit River, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted (of Central Park fame), offers stunning views of downtown Detroit.
3. Lafayette Coney Island: Experience a true Detroit Coney?"a hot dog topped with chili, mustard, and onions. Don't miss the chili fries and a Coke to complete the meal.
4. Eastern Market: Visit this vibrant farmers market on a Saturday for fresh produce, meats, and more. Afterwards, grab a delicious sandwich at Russell Street Deli.
5. The Detroit Zoo: Located just a few miles out of the city in Royal Oak, the zoo houses over 3,000 animals and is considered a cultural treasure.
6. Detroit Tigers Baseball: Catch a game at the new stadium. Afterward, visit the historic Michigan and Trumbull site, the old Tigers stadium where Ty Cobb once played, before it's gone.
7. Michigan Central Station: Explore the haunting beauty of this architectural marvel, built in 1913 and abandoned in 1987, which stands as a symbol of Detroit's past.
8. Windsor, Canada: Take a short drive over the tunnel or Ambassador Bridge to Windsor. Explore its charming downtown and savor the Italian cuisine on Erie Street.
9. Suburban Gems: Visit distinctive suburbs like Ferndale, Royal Oak, and Birmingham along the Woodward Avenue corridor. Each has unique boutiques and restaurants worth exploring.
10. Cranbrook: Journey up the Woodward corridor to this educational community established in the early 1900s. Discover stunning architecture by Eliel Saarinen, Albert Kahn, and others, often called “the most enchanted and enchanting setting in America.”
I hope these tips inspire you to explore and enjoy your time in Detroit. I'm sure I've missed some incredible spots, but the key is to get out, explore, and see what this remarkable city has to offer.
