What We Saw From a Detroit Train Car
Venturing to downtown Detroit for the first time. None of us were sure what to expect, or what exactly we were going to do. Around and around we drove, everywhere was full, rush hour was just starting. Finally, a parking space appeared, on some side street many blocks from the center of downtown. Surrounded by […]
