Wayne County Building

The lovely, Wayne County Building located at 600 Randolph Street in Downtown Detroit was constructed from 1897 to 1902. Currenty the home of Wayne County governement...however the word on the street is that they may move out over a lease dispute. Another vacant building in Detroit as a result of people not being able to get along and behave fairly? And not just any building...this one is a treasure.

Mbad Bead Museum

Today I spotted this place as I was driving up West Grand Blvd at Grand River. I don't go on this side of town much and had never seen this place before. Apparently it is a store...I'm guessing beads. The sign out back next to the giant sculpture of collected what have you says Mbad bead museum. I didn't get to go inside today...as I assumed that at 7pm on a Sunday they weren't open. But I will definitely be back! The outside of the place looked awesome! You can't see it in the picture but in addition to all of the painting on the walls there are giant shards of mirrors placed in the wall as well. Pretty neat!

Detroit River Walk

So this marks the beginning or renewal rather, of my excursions in and around the city of Detroit. I'll be photographing people, places, things as well as documenting any actions/reactions with any folk and or wildlife;) Today was pretty uneventful, although I did get pulled over on Woodward just north of Comerica park for not using my turn signal to pull away from the curb. The officer checked me and then let me go, at which point I proceeded to the lovely river walk pictured to the left. Down at the Detroit river walk you will find several fountains, a carousel, fine landscaping with many areas to sit and read, socialize with friends or folks, or just relax and enjoy the amazing view of the Detroit river. Also something quite nice that you don't see around other parts of the city...people biking, skating, jogging, walking, hand holding, smiling, and laughing. I've found this to be true each time I go to the river walk. Like I said, it's lovely...you can't help but smile.
