Photograph. Sepia-toned gelatin silver photo of a parade float that was part of the Detroit Bi-Centenary Parade. The float is mounted on streetcar trucks and is decorated to show the industrial progress of the city. A sign at the right end of the float notes "20. Future city of the Straits." Two men are standing to the right side of the float. The words, "Greater Detroit, Industry, Commerce, and Science," can be seen on the float with "Detroit" spelled out in electric lights at the top. Handwriting on the verso notes "Prophetic - Greater Detroit in 2001."
