Heidelberg Project begins with the belief that all citizens, from all cultures, have the right to grow and flourish in their communities. The HP believes that a community can re-develop and sustain itself, from the inside out, by embracing its diverse cultures and artistic attributes as the essential building blocks for a fulfilling and economically viable way of life. It’s different but a great stop while here in Detroit.
Wake up people
The Heidelberg project which gets its name from Heidelberg street is a neighborhood art project. A once run down neighborhood, resident Tyree Guyton has transformed abandoned junk into a massive outdoor exhibit.

The Heidelberg Project is one of the coolest places to check out while in Detroit! I loved enjoying all the creative art and fun houses. Sadly, 6 of these homes have been destroyed in the past year due to arson. I only hope that the Project will push forward and show that it will not be destroyed.

Incredible VEGAN gyro at this great little place in downtown Detroit. I’ve been hungry for it since I had it. Got it with chili cheese fries. Yum. The menu is entirely vegan. What a gem. It is in an area that looks to be actively gentrifying, so a fair number of boarded up and vacant lots, but close to tons of venues. #OnTheRoad

Brush Park might not have many top sights, but Little Caesars Arena and Orchestra Hall are two attractions nearby that you can check out.
