Greektown is a historic commercial and entertainment district located just northeast of the heart of downtown, along Monroe Avenue between Brush and St. Antoine Streets with a station on the city's elevated downtown elevated transit system known as the Detroit People Mover. The district is dominated by Greek-themed restaurants and includes St. Mary Roman Catholic Church, Second Baptist Church, the Atheneum Suite Hotel, and the Greektown Casino Hotel within its boundaries.
