I was only 4 during the Roits. All I can remeber was my Mom and cousin were scared. I Learned later that my little brother and I had Chicken Pox's and my Dad and older brother had went to a wedding in PA. I'll have to ask my Dad how long it took him to get back.

BTW the one story I have heard over the years was my Dad's buddy and him went to St. Clair County
to get beer. No beer sales in the tri-county area.

BTW#2 a lady down the street from us lived some where else at the time, don't know where, but she did have a tank in front of her Apt. building.

The Detroit Leland Hotel. I lived there for a while when I was going to Wayne State. It was knocked down in the early 80's I believe, and the MGM Grand Casino stands there now.

Somebody mentioned the "Mariners Sailors Cathedral" from the Gordon Lightfoot song. You're a Detroiter if you know that it's not a cathedral but a Methodist church.

The Wonder Bread Bakery!

I remember when the Lodge Freeway ended at Wyoming. And Metro Airport had only one terminal.
