Information About Greektown in Detroit

Along a one-block section of Monroe Street in downtown Detroit is one of the city’s oldest, somewhat-in-tact neighborhoods: Greektown. The tourist attraction is filled with Victorian-era, red-brick buildings that house a mix of restaurants – Greek and otherwise – as well as a host of stores, bakeries and night clubs. For a generation of baby boomers who grew up in Detroit’s suburbs, the area provides the charming urban streetscape expected in a major American city. It also makes a great place to hangout on a Saturday night, especially now that the neighborhood is also home to the Greektown Casino Hotel and within walking distance of Comerica Park and Ford Field.
