 Riot of Fresh Food |
2934 N Russell Street Detroit, MI 48207 United States +1 586 393 8800 http://www.easternmarket.org |
Since the 1890s, farmers have brought their goods to market every Saturday at this area along Gratiot Avenue on the east side of downtown Detroit. The huge, semi-enclosed market has expanded into a six-day-a-week festival of food, drink and merchandise. A small artist/loft community also has sprung up among the warehouses. You can buy everything here from fine cheese, imported wines, honey, meat and spices in the unpretentious specialty shops that have sprung up around the central market area. On Saturdays, the action starts before dawn and the bargain hunters come late. On the first Saturday in May, the market hosts Flower Day, the largest flower market in the United States. Expect wonderful, cosmopolitan chaos in this Old World-style, authentic and unglamorous area. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Dearborn's Mall Extraordinaire |
18900 Michigan Ave Detroit, MI 48126 United States +1 313 593 1370 http://www.shopfairlane.com |
The crown jewel in shopping center magnate Al Taubman's empire, Fairlane Town Center is a fashionable destination that lures more than 18 million customers a year. Built in the 1960s, it has been renovated several times to make the layout less confusing. Big department stores such as Lord & Taylor and Hudson's vie for space in this 1.4-million-square-foot megamall with small fashion emporia and name-brand chain retailers. Several tiers of stores ring a central court. Its proximity to Ford World Headquarters and downtown Detroit make the mall convenient for the traveler, and it attracts a diverse mix of shoppers.

Pulsating Center of Nightlife |
Monroe Street Detroit, MI 48226 United States |
In the lean years when downtown Detroit was moribund, Greektown was the only place alive at night, so it's only fitting now that as Detroit revives, Greektown is the jumpingest place downtown. What once was one block of nearly identical Greek restaurants has expanded into a throbbing center of restaurants, clubs, shops and a casino. The indoor mall, Trappers Alley, was an earlier attempt to update the area. The increasingly upscale but still affordable Greek eateries and bakeries, with their succulent baklava and other pastries, still provide the anchor for an increasingly diverse area.

Columnist William Safire says this old book warehouse is the top tourist attraction in Detroit. To bibliophiles, it is a must stop. On four floors of the old Advance Glove warehouse are close to a million titles, ranging from the popular to the obscure, covering all kinds of subjects. It's a treasure trove for book lovers, who can spend many happy hours wandering the aisles. Owner King moved here in 1983 after outgrowing his first location. He has published about 90 rare book catalogues and handled the papers of celebrities, sports stars and numerous auto magnates. There are two smaller King locations, one at Wayne State University and one in Ferndale. Review © 2007, Wcities |
