We took a big loop around downtown, on both sides of Woodward, down to Hart Plaza, and up to Grand River, but not as far north as Grand Circus Park. Is that all considered the Financial District? It seems like that's pretty much the bulk of the intact part of downtown.
My friend and I had lunch in Mexicantown, and drove through the Cass Corridor and Midtown/Wayne State area, but I didn't get photos of those places.

The countryside pictures were taken while approaching Windsor. I'm not sure of the boundaries of Essex County, but the hilly shots weren't more than 20 minutes outside of town.

I too was quite taken with the Penobscot Building. It is a classy and powerful building, fit to anchor a metropolis (it was the tallest in MI before the Ren Center).

I think the poster means the historic architecture downtown. Let's just leave it at that. (I'm trying to head this off at the pass. I rather not have my thread turn into a back-and-forth about the state of Detroit. We've had enough of those)
