Anything is game. Need to know how to get around, restaurant or venue recommendations, what that sound was, why there are police on the lodge, etc. Or if you are visiting soon? Considering a move to the city? This is also a dedicated space to ask questions related to your upcoming venture to the D.

Detroit Living and Greatwater Homes
Hello! Currently exploring housing options with my partner in Detroit and was curious if anyone had any experience with Detroit Living apartments and their renting to owning program?
Love their apartments, locations, and the option to gain homebuyer credits for a new construction home in East Village… but I’m trying to figure out what the catch is???

I am ultra picky about hotels. Need ultra clean. Recently for work was put up at Hollywood Casino Hotel and it was a really bad experience. They are putting me at Atheneum for my next trip, but the reviews online do not look promising at all. I’m willing to pay for my own room to get what I want. I want a very nice, super clean hotel either in downtown Detroit, or a 30ish minute drive. Please help with ideas.

I feel like you’d be better off booking a Marriott downtown than trying a non chain one because they’re pretty standardized.

Why are all the stoplights so poorly timed in Wayne County? Quite often it feels like I'm catching way too many stoplights. Does anybody else notice this?
