MUSEUM HOPPING IN DOWNTOWN DETROIT

MOTOR CITY WHEELCHAIR MOBILITY

The wheelchair-accessible QLine provides free transit along three miles of Woodward Avenue.

On the way back to the core of Detroit, pause to gasp at the Fisher Building, nicknamed Detroit’s largest art object.

Architect Albert Kahn’s 1928 art deco masterpiece soars 441 feet, clad in marble, mosaics, painted ceilings and much brass and bronze. You’ll find shops and an accessible theater in the large lobby.

Virtually across the street is another of Architect Albert Kahn’s triumphs, the Neoclassical, 15-story Cadillac Place.

It opened in 1922 as the headquarters of General Motors and, at the time, was the second-largest office building in the world.

In the 1970s, GM moved to the monolithic Renaissance Center on the Detroit River, so now the complex houses 2,000-plus employees of the state of Michigan.
