"What Could Have Been: Britain's Plan for Detroit" will take place on
Wednesday, June 14, at 7 p.m.

 

Through a chain of coincidences, the William L. Clements Library discovered
a previously unknown map of Detroit drawn in 1790, which contains details
not represented in other plans for the city. Join us in the exploration of
the map's details in comparison to other known plans of pre-1800 Detroit.
