September-October 2006 Our Heritage

Although it received much less publicity than the Detroit Zoo situation, The Detroit Historical Society has taken over the operation of the Detroit Historical Museum. To promote the re-opening of the museum, new displays were set up in the ultra-modern lobby of Compuware. Russ Murphy loaned his 1954 Caribbean convertible to the cause, and John MacArthur helped him bring his Packard downtown.  If you haven’t visited the Detroit Historical Museum recently, do it soon. Our city’s heritage is a long and colorful one that we can all take pride in.
