DETROIT (WXYZ) – More than 100,000 people have now visited the restored Michigan Central Station, officials announced this week.
According to Michigan Central, visitor traffic surpassed 100,000 this week. It opened to the public for 10 days of public tours in June, after which it was open for public visits on Fridays and Saturdays.
Summer operations at the station will continue through August 31 on Fridays from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and will also be open on Sundays and Mondays from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. over Labor Day weekend.
The tours are self-guided and require no tickets or registration.
Later this month, Michigan Central will announce additional fall hours, including ticketed tours.
“This outpouring of support has been truly inspiring,” Michigan Central CEO Joshua Sirefman said in a statement. “The station is more than just a building; it is a symbol of the city’s strength and a catalyst for innovation, and we are proud to welcome the community back to this iconic Detroit landmark.”
