Detroit trip itinerary


Sounds delicious

Originally uploaded by StSaling.

Here is the itinerary for the Detroit driving tour I took last weekend. It will probably take about 4-6 hours if you make the two stops at the Guardian Building and Fisher Building.

This itinerary is from a class my friend took at UM a little over two years ago, so some of the commentary is a little outdated. Please make sure to take a good city map with you — some street signs are missing (beware of the Puritan/Pilgrim turn!).

You’ll pass the now closed Hostess Cake Bakery on Oakman, shown here. Too bad, I could really use a Snoball right now.

So here’s the PDF — have fun and take lots of pictures.

    Good stuff, Stacy! I would only add that when you cross 75 on Wilkins, then turn left on Russell, make sure to look to your left — the famous Eastern Market is there, and is well worth a quick stop to any of the great business therein.

    Thanks for all this work!

    Wow, Stacy! Sounds like a great way to explore and get to know Detroit. I’ll definitely do the trek one of these weekends : )
