Millions of honeybees are living on top of these famous Detroit buildings –
and they're creating a stronger environment

Many Detroiters have visited the Ren Cen, Huntington Place, MGM Casino and The Whitney…but have you ever ventured up to their rooftops?

If you did, you’d undoubtedly find a great view of the city — but you’d also discover some rather unexpected residents who are working hard to help build a stronger environment for Detroit....

Beginning as a beekeeping hobbyist about 15 years ago, Peterson-Roest and his husband {also Brian} founded Bees in the D in 2016.

Starting small, they installed six hives that first year. Fast-forward to 2023, and the organization now has over 200 hives at more than 60 locations in five Michigan counties.

Along with the aforementioned locations, hives can be found atop of places like the Albert Kahn-designed Belt Line Center, the Free Press Building, the Foundation Hotel, the Shinola Hotel, Detroit's Outdoor Adventure Center and the Detroit City Distillery, as well as Metro Detroit spots like Leon and Lulu, Birmingham Country Club, Grosse Pointe Yacht Club and more....

They also maintain the apiaries at Oakland University, University of Detroit Mercy and MLK High School, so students can learn first-hand about honeybees and their conservation....
