Apparatus Room in the Detroit Foundation Hotel

In the financial district and heart of downtown you’ll find Apparatus Room. The development of the old Detroit Fire Department Headquarters into the Apparatus Room restaurant and Foundation Hotel has to be one of the coolest renovations around.

The restaurant space’s original purpose was for storing fire engines, now it’s serving up some of the hottest cuisine in town. This place is a hot commodity, make sure you snag a reservation.
