Location

On Concord St between Medbury and Lambert, Detroit MI 48211. Behind the Packard Plant and in front of a drug treatment center(?).

Participants

Alison (talk)

Plans

I planned on attempting this Displaced Hash of Origin (day I was born, in the graticule in which I currently reside) on my way to pick up User:Nixill for us to visit 2019-01-06 42 -83 together, and driving up Concord St at 25mph to claim the Speed Racer achievement.

Expedition

I approached the hash location via E Grand Blvd and noticed Concord was blocked off with barriers and a security vehicle north of Grand Blvd, so I attempted to approach the hash location via Medbury instead. Medbury was blocked at Concord, and there are several No Trespassing signs posted on the Packard Plant. Because of the blocked streets and signs, I chose not to exit my vehicle and attempt to access the hash location on foot.

Photos

Driving east on E. Grand Blvd., approaching Concord Street, en route to the hash point. Near the former site of the Packard plant. The barricade and the security vehicle are visible just beyond the pedestrian bridge.
The street corner at Medbury and Concord, with a barrier blocking access onto Concord Street and a no trespassing sign posted on the building. I chose not to exit my car and access the location on foot.
