Downtown

One Saturday we took the kid's downtown to check out Bill's office and surrounding area. The Renaissance Center, the building complex where he works, is huge and has a ton of things in it--like a drug store, post office, flower shop, dry cleaning, clothing stores, food court, movie theater, nice restaurants, car exhibits, and hotel. The building is right next to and over looks the Detroit river, which separates the US from Cananda. Also attached to the building is a station for the People Mover--a small downtown transit system. Outside the "Ren Cen",  is the Riverwalk--a paved walkway along the river leading to a park and icecream shop with a carousel. There are also places along the Riverwalk that are used for concerts and other events.
