From unique small businesses and specialty restaurants, to large scale commercial and residential projects there is a lot happening throughout the city of Detroit. Walk the Woodbridge neighborhood with a local guide who will share insights into the past and present of the neighborhood —the people, places and projects that make it unique — and point out places faculty and staff can grab coffee, lunch or an after-work drink.

Organized by Wayne State’s Office of Economic Development (OED) in partnership with Human Resources, these tours are designed to connect faculty and staff with the greater Wayne State neighborhood and promote employee wellness and team building. Those interested in attending are expected to RSVP through Eventbrite, which can be accessed here.
