Most days in Greektown are a motorist's nightmare.
Traffic crawls through streets, often around delivery trucks and double-parked restaurant patrons.
Residents trying to visit the Wayne County Treasurer's office on Monroe Street battle for parking spaces with lawyers trying to get to 36th District Court and tourists enjoying one of the city's top attractions.

The Greektown group is the only one of the three winning casino applicants that did not propose any new parking in its plans. The Greektown temporary casino will be behind Trappers Alley. And while traffic clogs the street during the day, many of the parking lots empty after 5 p.m., he said.
