Parking
Guests can check in for their tour and park their cars at the Detroit Police Department’s 12th Precinct at 1441 W. Seven Mile Road.
There will be a shuttle service that will transport people to each home, or guests can walk.
Parking will also be available on the street outside of the precinct, but event organizers say parking is limited and encourage attendees to carpool.
Guests are also asked not to park in the neighborhood so that the shuttle bus can get to each home easily.
