detroit1220 is a travelogue that includes stories and pictures from various excursions I took by public transportation, Uber, bicycle, or on foot in Detroit and surrounding neighborhoods during a three-month stay at Hamtramck Disneyland.

One story, for example, links the estate and art collection of Eleonore and Edsel Ford to the tracks of spinning car wheels in the concrete parking lot of the infamous Eastmall, one of the world’s first shopping malls.

Another story begins with a $3 bus ride to Pontiac and ends with funky metal-coated chocolates at a Bloomfield confectionery.
