    What does it mean if your hotel doesn't appear on the map? Wear body armor?

    Isn't the Shorecrest on Jefferson, so it is on the map - you'll be fine. Atwater/Woodbridge area is fine.

    Are they tearing JLA down after this year? Leave your mark PJ.

    I don't think it will be torn down until after 2016 or 17 unfortunately...

    Looks like it is just East of Rivard St. and Jefferson, so it either just on the map or just off the map. I hope my room is on the west end of the hotel or I may be introuble :)

    My hand-me-down GPS could only find the arena by its' old address, not the current one on Steve Yzerman Drive. As long as I get there I suppose I shouldn't complain about the free GPS unit.

    Visitors please be sure to steer clear of all of the riots, looters, and carjackers. And please don't get murdered. It's Detroit after all. 8-|

    Anyone have any suggestions for things to do Friday after the show? Maybe a good breakfast spot or lunch? Any sites we should see? Should we venture over to Windsor?

    For breakfast/brunch, The Hudson Cafe is amazing...graham cracker crusted french toast and red velvet pancakes amongst many other choices!
    My favorite spot in Detroit is Green Dot Stables, a good spot for lunch or dinner...$3 sliders, $3 drinks.
    Roast is a really fancy restaurant in the Westin but to avoid the priciness, do happy hour there--great food and drinks for a tiny fraction of the cost of a meal!

    I wouldn't pass up the Motown Museum either, assuming you like music. If you like art, the DIA is a beautiful museum. Have fun! I'd explore Detroit rather than Windsor :)

    Awesome post. Very helpful. Both places are within 4 minutes from my hotel (MGM Grand) so I'm excited to check out Hudson Cafe and Green Dot!

    Is The Post still around? Gotta believe we'd be spilling out the doors, but I haven't been in over a decade unfortunately.
