Top 10 Kid Friendly Things To Do and Attractions in Windsor

"Completed in 1929; built by Wirt C. Rowland for Smith, Hinchman & GryllsOf all the early-20th-century skyscrapers still standing in Detroit, the 40-story Guardian Building is the (near) universal favorite. The building itself, a National Historic Landmark also known as the "Cathedral of Finance," is all the attraction you need -- the Art Deco-meets-Mayan Revival style features orange brickwork with tile, limestone, and terra cotta on the exterior, while the interior is a multi-color mosaic of Pewabic and Rookwood tile with Native American themes that, honestly, feel a little better suited for the Southwest than the Midwest, making the Guardian all the more distinct from the other skyscrapers of its time. Stone carvings by Corrado Parducci depicting the allegorical figures of "Safety" and "Security" flank the Griswold St. entrance of the building."

"Among the many cultural attractions in Detroit MI, the Guardian Building is one that stands out. If you enjoyed the historical sites in North Carolina, you will surely appreciate this building. The building dates all the way back to 1928."

"Anchoring a two-square block in the heart of downtown, Campus Martius offers year-round fun with plenty of gardens, lawns, and fountains. From November to March, kids can skate on the city’s most popular outdoor rink."

"Voted “Best Breakfast Buffet” by Metro Times Readers, Bistro 555 is the perfect place to catch a bite to eat amongst the hustle.

There’s a wide, varied menu for diners of different tastes, including a special section for kids."

"Detroit Artists Market (DAM) is widely known for its appreciation of local Detroit contemporary artists. With its inception in 1932, founder Mrs. H.

"First, order an espresso shot to have inside and enjoy the funky ceramic cups they are served in, which sort of look like mutant oyster shells. Second, order a pour-over with beans from Detroit's Anthology, Ypsilanti's Hyperion, or San Francisco's Ritual. Third, order something from the breakfast or lunch menu, because it is made from scratch in-house and is consistently excellent."
