Czego oczekiwać
1
Pasek
Nazwa Pasa pochodzi od lokalizacji alejki w dawnej dzielnicy odzieżowej, która miała kształt pasa. Jest to część większego projektu Library Street Collective, mającego na celu ponowne wyobrażenie sobie niewykorzystanych przestrzeni w całym mieście.
2
Park Campus Martius
Ten park powstał w 2004 roku i jest głównym miejscem spotkań w Detroit. Został nawet nazwany „Top 10 Public Square” w USA przez USA Today. Nieźle jak na obszar, w którym 20 lat temu niewiele osób czuło się wystarczająco bezpiecznie.
3
Budynek Penobscota
Kiedy został zbudowany w 1928 roku, był to 4. najwyższy budynek w Stanach Zjednoczonych i 8. najwyższy na świecie. Wznosi się nad tobą jak krawędź urwiska z serią niepowodzeń na szczycie.
4
Budynek Strażnika
Budynek Guardian to jeden z najwspanialszych drapaczy chmur w stylu art deco w Stanach Zjednoczonych. Został ukończony w 1929 roku i pierwotnie nosił nazwę Union Trust Building. Miał też dość uroczy przydomek Katedry Finansów.

Duch Detroit
Podobna do słońca rzecz po prawej stronie ma symbolizować promienie emanujące od Boga, a ludzie w jego drugiej ręce mają reprezentować wszystkie ludzkie relacje. Duch jest powszechnie rozpoznawalny i lubiany, a obraz można znaleźć w całym mieście.

Pomnik Joe Louisa
oe Louis nie rzucał się po prostu na ring bokserski. Walczył z segregacją i prawami Jima Crowa oraz zachęcał młodych Afroamerykanów do wstąpienia do armii amerykańskiej podczas II wojny światowej, mimo że nadal istniała w niej segregacja rasowa. Kiedy zapytano go, dlaczego to zrobił, słynnie odpowiedział: „Wiele rzeczy jest nie tak z Ameryką, ale Hitler ich nie naprawi”.
7
The Belt
The Belt is named after the alleyway's location in the former garment district which was shaped like a belt. It is part of a larger project by the Library Street Collective to reimagine underutilized spaces throughout the city.
8
Campus Martius Park
This park was created in 2004 and is a main hang out in Detroit. It was even named a “Top 10 Public Square” in the USA by USA Today. Not bad for an area that few people felt safe enough walking into 20 years ago.
9
Penobscot Building
When it was built in 1928, it was the 4th highest building in the United States and 8th highest in the world. It soars above you like the edge off a cliff with a series of setbacks at the top.
10
The Guardian Building
The Guardian building is one of the finest art deco skyscrapers in the United States. It was completed in 1929 and was originally called the Union Trust Building. It also had the rather cute nickname of the Cathedral of Finance.
11
The Spirit of Detroit
The sun-like thing on the right is meant to symbolize the rays emanating from God, and the people in his other hand are supposed to represent all human relationships. The Spirit is widely recognized and well-loved and you can find the image all over the city.
12
Joe Louis Monument
oe Louis didn’t just throw his weight around in the boxing ring. He fought against segregation and Jim Crow laws and encouraged young African American men to join the US Army during World War II despite the fact that it was still racially segregated. When he was asked why he did it, he famously replied "Lots of things wrong with America, but Hitler ain't going to fix them."

Great brief history of so much downtown! The tour was well paced and we could walk comfortably. Good idea to start at Buddy’s pizza!

The tour worked just fine by listening to it on my phone speaker for my wife and I, even in downtown traffic. The tour was mostly architectural but the art deco buildings were just amazing. You could enter several of them in the interiors have been maintained perfectly. The tour included other famous locations in downtown such as Joe Louis's statue. Pro: the directions and narration were perfect. The guide was well informed. The tour is a good way to learn about downtown Detroit which is quite vibrant. Con: The tour was a little short, it only briefly mentioned the Detroit River, for example, when the tour ended near it. The river would be a good stop.

We enjoyed the walk and learn more about Detroit. Stopping app and starting later was a bit cumbersome. Otherwise it was fine.
