Very true that that stretch isn't dangerous, except for the traffic. Even by non-Detroit standards, it still isn't dangerous.
However it isn't a long distance, but it isn't walkable. The built environment isn't there. Walk that distance in Paris and you're passing exclusively storefronts and through charming little parks. That particular trek in Detroit consists of the following: fencing, set-back casino and DTE superblocs, the Lodge, and empty lots. It's about as charming as walking across a Meijer parking lot, except for the skyline.
