Go Green, Detroit, at Corktown’s St. Patrick’s Day Parade
Sunday afternoon, people will wear green, drink green and see green as Michigan Avenue gets Irish for the 51st annual St. Patrick’s Day parade in Corktown. Get in the spirit with the pics from Model D photographer Marvin Shaouni.
It’s that time of year again. Wear some green, drink some green and
watch a sea of green travel down Michigan Avenue for the annual
Corktown St. Patrick’s Day Parade, this Sunday.
The parade starts at 2 p.m. Sunday, March 15, 2009, traveling down Michigan Avenue from 6th to 14th. Revelers line the street to catch candy and beads or enjoy a cold beverage from one of the many Corktown watering holes. Good times.
