Which Detroit McDonalds store got nicknamed the MurdaMac, and what happened to give it that nickname?
.... where did this particular notion come from?
I'd have to say the one on Davison near Linwood. Very rough area.
That was one of the first to have bullet-proof glass installed!
Or maybe the one on Conner and Warren?
out of what I suppose is lurid curiosity/boredom, I typed in some key words and found somebody's review of the McDonald's at 18137 Joy Rd, Detroit 48228.

This place has a nickname because of the gang violence that happens in this area. For those who don't know they call this location the murder mac.
Lovely!Quote:

Good times. NOT. The 'eh food is a killer at all of them. And expensive at that!

IIRC, there is one at Mack and Conner, not Warren.Quote:

I would have guessed 7 Mile and Gratiot in 4820-die.
Herman Gardens were notorious for violence decades before 7 & Gratiot area was even considered as being a high crime area.Quote:
