On Friday afternoon we have a van tour of Detroit as the optional activity. We'll be getting a rental van seating about 8 passengers plus driver (Arthur) and a tour guide (a local friend of a friend, with a website), with 2–3 stops to walk around and take pictures. The driving tour will be approximately 2.5 hours, with a half-hour walking tour of downtown at the end. Highlights will include glorious downtown buildings, the Heidelberg art-out-of-abandonment Project, the huge and desolate former Packard Plant, Rivard Plaza with restrooms and views of Canada, and, assuming traffic isn't bad, Detroit Central Station.
Exact pricing ($35ish) and transport logistics are under discussion over on the Facebook event page.
