The East Riverfront has been a restaurant and entertainment destination for many years, from music at Chene Park to microbrews at Atwater Brewery to fine dining at the Rattlesnake Club. With the planned RiverWalk and new housing developments, these East Side communities are poised for a boom. Here are Model D's guides to visiting, investing in and moving to the East Riverfront.
There's excitement about what's going to happen on the river, with plans for new restaurants, places to live and the ever-expanding RiverWalk. Even before the Bus and Bing break ground on their developments, however, the city's waterfront is still a draw for good food, drinks and a wonderful night out — even mid-week.
Through tenacity and vision, the dream of an accessible, vibrant Detroit riverfront is overcoming obstacles and is well on its way to becoming a reality.
