Inn on Ferry Street
Wed, 07 Jan 2009 16:20:51 -0800 by travelandtransitions

My abode for my last two days in Detroit was the Inn on Ferry Street, a beautifully renovated complex of six historic buildings. It encompasses four mansions as well as two carriage houses that were each built for prominent Detroit families. After many years of languishing, these buildings have been re-functioned into 42 stunning guest rooms.Ferry Street itself is a historic street in the Midtown Detroit District, which is also referred to as Detroits Cultural Centre. It is surrounded by a large number of museums, including the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Museum of African American History, the Detroit Historical Museum, the Main Branch of the Detroit Public Library, the Detroit Science Centre and the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit.I had a chance to sit down with Sue Mosey, the driving force behind the renovation of the six buildings that make up the Inn on Ferry Street. Sue is an urban planner and the President of the University Cultural Center Association, a non-profit organization that has aided in planning and developing nearly $400 million in new residential projects in Detroits Midtown area.Under the guidance of the University Center Cultural Association, the Inn on Ferry Street was renovated at a cost of about $8.5 million and today features 42 gorgeously designed guest rooms, a large breakfast room (breakfast is included free of charge), a business centre with complimentary meeting space for guests and great common areas in all the buildings that allow the guests to socialize and relax.Sue and I talked about the socio-economic history of Detroit and the unique factors that shaped this city. We also touched on some of the planned new developments and some of the festivals and special events that highlight the calendar of the city.The Inn on Ferry Street itself is a great hospitality establishment with excellent amenities. In addition to the business centre, it provides free Internet access, a free shuttle service covering the midtown and downtown areas, valet service and room service. A big breakfast buffet is available every day from 6 am to 10 am at no extra charge, and coffees, teas and fresh fruit are available during the day.I was staying in a two bedroom suite with a separate sitting room in the Raymond C. Smith Carriage House that was built in 1892 and holds seven guest bedrooms. The Scott House is the main building of the complex since it is the location of the reception area, the breakfast room and the business centre. It also features 3 guest bedrooms.The Pungs House was built in 1892 for a railway magnate and holds nine uniquely decorated guest bedrooms while the Owen House dates back to 1887 and used to belong to the owner of a dry goods firm. It consists of seven luxurious bedrooms and two large executives. The main floor holds a glamorous parlour with a baby grand piano and two fireplaces.The Roehm House finally was constructed in 1888 for the president of the Detroit Carriage Company. Nine guest bedrooms are located here and the popular second floor suite offers ultimate luxury with its Jacuzzi tub, private balcony and Asian influenced décor.The Inn on Ferry Street offers a great location in Detroits Cultural Center and is a prime example of some of the architectural rejuvenation that has been happening in various parts of the city.

Less is more.Intelligent lightweight constructionin the BMW 7 Series Sedan.The body of the BMW 7 Series offers an exceptionally good balance of optimised weight and all-round solidity. The consistent use of aluminium parts has reduced the overall weight of the car by another 22 kilos, 7 of which are due to the replacement of the steel roof. The resulting change in the centre of gravity makes a significant contribution to the car's agility. This is BMW EfficientDynamics: reduced fuel consumption, increased driving pleasure.???????????
