Detroit's Capitol Park has a long, storied history. And it's seen a lot of transformation the last five years.

It also has a special place in my heart as it's a place I traveled often as a kid. My first Hot Wheels set was bought in a store where Prime and Proper is now. My McDonalds? As a kid, it'd be the one that was at State and Shelby streets when my dad went and painted offices. 

On today's show, we dive in on the history with HistoricDetroit.org's Dan Austin.

We take a tour of the recently renovated Farwell Building. It had sat basically abandoned since 1984.

We talk to Capitol Cafe operator and Eatori owner Zack Yatim about his new spot.

And with Brian Rebain of Kraemer Design Group.
