Corktown Heritage & MI Central Depot Private Tour

The Corktown Community is the oldest existing neighborhood in Detroit. Home to Detroit workers since the 1830’s, 75 acres of Corktown homes and businesses were demolished in the years following World War II for industrial expansion, and for the expansion of area freeways. The remaining residential sections were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in July of 1978. Accordingly, the neighborhood is now designated as an Historic District of the City of Detroit.
Discover the secrets of Detroit’s first melting pot as it has evolved through nearly two centuries. Your guide is well equipped to keep you safe and informed during this 3-hour excursion.
