Driving in Detroit - Fort Street

Fort Street Tour

Fort Street Detroit looking toward downtown

For those that haven't been down Fort Street in a while or for those who have never been, I put together this short video. It was a beautiful sunny day, perfect for shooting a video. The drive is a stretch of Fort Street heading from the west to downtown. It's a speedy ride, but rest assured the speed limit was followed. :)

Highlights
The video only covers a portion of Fort Street from Scotten to 2nd Avenue. What will you see? Some naysayers may say, "nothing of interest." -- But, I'll answer that with you'll see some old landmarks such as Johnny's Ham, the Greyhound Bus building, Fort Street Presbyterian Church and of course the Ambassador Bridge. More importantly, you'll see possibilities! As you see in the video the pavement is relatively new, and there is plenty of opportunity for business growth on this stretch of road.

The Music
The soundtrack to the video is In the JazzClub by Dave Imbernon. The song is from the album Jazz Friends 2012 that is available as a free download on Jamendo.com. I had to edit the song length slightly to have it fit the video, but it came out pretty good IMHO.

Here's the video, hope you enjoy the ride. -- If it's been a while since you've been down this section of Fort Street, what's changed? Leave a comment and let me know.
