Yeah we literally stayed right across the road from GM headquarters at the Courtyard Mariot. Greektown Casino was just to the our northwest a few blocks. Still, we went to some shady places to eat. Slow's BBQ over on Michigan Ave was awesome but while we were waiting for a table outside people kept asking us for money. Glad we had a good sized group
Side note: Driving the speed limit in our rental car (base model Versa), I was able to almost get airborne crossing an intersection on Michigan Ave due to how rutty it was crossing a different street o.O
