Corktown

Detroit's oldest neighborhood, Corktown, is located just west of the downtown commercial district. Its historic streets boast Victorian-era row houses, beautifully restored with vibrant colors and careful gardens. The neighborhood is a tight-knit community, and the surrounding entertainment district is great for music and bar hopping.
