Born in the Soo, grew up in Port Huron and went to college and worked in Detroit 1956-61. Last time I was in Detroit, not counting passing through on the interstate, was in 1999. If it hadn’t been for the “Jolly Green Giant” on Woodward Ave, I would have had absolutely no idea that I was 3 blocks from where I had worked for 3 years! I don’t think even the promise of safe conduct and unlimited coney islands from the Lafayette or American could get me back again!
I lived on Woodward Avenue. Gives you an idea, huh?
