Hey guys,
I went on another tour of the city of Detroit on October 23-24, this Sunday, I took in the world-famous Detroit Insitute of Arts and a taste of midtown and the cultural area.

Without further ado, the second part of my Motor City weekend in October...
Dreary morning from my hotel room at the Marriott Renaissance Center looking at Windsor
RenCen Tower 300
The beautiful Detroit Institute of Arts, built in 1923, second-largest art gallery in the United States, housing one of the largest collections of art in the world.
The equally-beautiful Detroit Public Library, built in 1921
The Thinker statue
Looking south on Woodward Avenue, at the Wayne State University building
Inside the Detroit Institute of Arts...
After the DIA, looking north on Woodward towards the Fisher Building and Cadillac Place in midtown
Beautiful home on Ferry and Woodward
The Inn on Ferry Street
Robert Pauli Scherer house
Detroit Historical Museum
Kirby Apartment Building
Wayne State University Welcome Center
Old Main Building, Wayne State University
Thompson House
Hilberry Theatre
Mackenzie House
First Congregational Church
Woodward Avenue North Scenes
David Whitney House, home of one of Detroit's most exclusive restaurants, The Whitney
