Built in Detroit: The 1800’s Boomtown Tour

A century before the
“Big Three” referred to Ford, Chrysler and General Motors, Detroit’s original
big three were ships, stoves and railroad cars, manufactured by the thousands
in the pre-automotive Motor City. Detroit History Tours will lead guided tours
on January 4 to peruse period playgrounds, homes and factories of the era,
sample iconic Detroit tastes and enjoy a drink in a storied railroad location.
The luxury motor-coach leaves promptly at 6:30 pm from
Eastern Market (2934 Russell Street) The bus will embark near Shed Three.
Boarding starts at 6:15 p.m. Because drinking and swearing come with the
history, evening bus tours are restricted to 21 years old and older. Group
tours are available.
