Greektown

Historic Greektown in downtown Detroit, has long been a favorite tourist attraction. It is also known as 'Bricktown' for the fabulous 19th century architecture found in view in St. Peter and Paul's Catholic Church, the oldest surviving church in the district. Wayne County Courthouse, also within the vicinity, is where Mae West was a defendent in a public indecency charge.

Greektown has long stood as Detroit's finest in top-notch dining with its 21 grecian restaurants and bakeries. Nothing can beat the tender taste of roasted lamb and green beans with a bonus of rich baklava and a glass of Ozie.

With the inclusion of the Greektown Casino, this area immediately jumps to the top of the priority list as the 'Best Place to Be' in Detroit for Evening Entertainment. Greektown is the only casino which accesses the people mover for its patrons. They have the ever popular Poker Room which is always packed to the prim for those consumed with this popular gambling sport. They have numerous bands for ongoing entertainment and some very fine banquet rooms for different events.
