Woodward Avenue closing for 90 days in Downtown Detroit to test Spirit of Detroit plaza

DETROIT – Woodward Avenue between Jefferson and Larned will be closed for 90 days starting tonight.

The plaza will feature food trucks, performances, and areas for visitors to enjoy the space.

A grand opening is planned for Monday, June 12 at 11 a.m.
