What an amazing look into the past - love the streets of old Detroit!

Very nice museum to show Detroit's Historical Background. Came to see the Glancy Trains exhibit, cool layout but I thought was bigger.

You will learn things about Detroit and the area that you never hear about. Found out Detroit has been the leader of more than just the automoble industry. It has been in the forefront of inovation many times. Very cool place.

This is a little GEM in the heart of Detroit. An interesting way to spend an afternoon for a person or family.

Excellent history of Detroit! Wonderful for all ages... elementary children through adult
