East Grand Blvd
"A glimpse of Detroit's past"
E. Grand Blvd. is one of my favorite streets to drive on in Detroit for two reasons. First it leads right to Belle Isle and second because it gives a great look at how nice Detroit used to be.
The street is a great wide boulevard that you can practically see the Model T's cruising down. It's lined with these grand old houses that practically beg to be part of some turn of the century movie set.
Guh!
Now the reality. Most of those houses are either broke down, burnt out and abandoned. Or, broke down and turned into nursing homes. The street itself is not so clean, the boulevard greens not maintained.
You'll find a fair amount of small stores and closer to Warren, a business district. I wouldn't want to live on this street at all, but I do enjoy the view and imagined memories.
