The Westin Book Cadillac Hotel (and Residences) has reopened after a nearly $200 million reconstruction to feature 453 hotel rooms and 64 condos which have already started to close sales. The Book-Cadillac is also a place to eat with exciting additions like the Spa 19 24 Grille with a spa run by the owner of Todd’s Room of Birmingham, the Boulevard Room in the Westin Hotel, the Motor Bar serving breakfast and lunch, and Roast, run by celebrity chef Michael Symon’s steakhouse for dinner. Michael Symon is an Iron Chef. There is also a Starbucks.
Even if you can’t celebrate the opening of the hotel by staying a night there you can still get in on the fun next Friday, October 24, with a Detroit block party in front of the hotel on Washington Blvd. It’s free and lasts from 8:30 till 10:30 p.m. and features music from Ryan Elliott, Paxahau’s Chuck Flask, Killer Flamingos, and Trick Trick. There’s also a breakdancing show, featured artists, and free giveaways and T-shirts.
It’s all Access Detroit next Friday night at Washington and Michigan Avenue in downtown Detroit.
