20 Grand Motel
The 20 Grand Motel still shows vague signs of life. Anybody who was anybody in the Detroit music scene of the 1960s played at the 20 Grand lounge. The classic restaurant and lounge have been erased, but the original 20 Grand Motel lives on as the Economy Inn.
In the freezing January rain, the lights cautiously welcome anyone with enough money and need for a bed.

The 20 Grand should have been saved as an historical building and as a tribute to the musical culture of Detroit.
I remember seeing Jackie Wilson and B B King there in the the 60's.
The talent and atmosphere there was awesome -- just unbelievable!!
