I thought it was quite amazing and have to thank all the volunteers. The tour even came with a 20 page booklet with pictures and a history of the different apartment buildings. We got inside two buildings including the last one under renovation, which was La Vogue at 225 Merton. They were redoing the apartments with new kitchen cupboards and granite countertops. Lots of revitalizaton. They even showed us the stables for the Detroit Mounted Police across Covington Drive from some of these apartments buildings. Aparently, the police have cleaned up a lot of drugs and crime from the area in the past couple years and crime's down. At the end, there was a hayride through the park and a campfire. A lot of people showed up. They plan to do it again at least once every year, so I'd definitely recommend checking it out next time.
