Beyond Downtown - Eastern Market + Lafayette Park Walking Tour
Just a mile northeast of downtown Detroit, Eastern Market and Lafayette stand side-by-side as two neighborhoods with rich history and a whole lot currently moving and shaking.
Eastern Market is the cultural hub of Detroit's wholesale food industry. The surrounding area is home to 80 structures, beautiful street art courtesy of Murals in the Market. Lafayette Park, full of mid-century modern structures, is revered across the globe for its architecture but also sits on the ground of a historically black neighborhood, Black Bottom.
On this tour, we will cover the past, present and future of the Market and Lafayette Park, and see why both neighborhoods consistently draw guests from Detroit, its surrounding cities, and all over the world. Here, crowds of thousands gather together around the goal of becoming healthier and happier.
