About Fordson

Fordson is an east Dearborn neighborhood of houses on a tight street grid, much of it from the 1930s with later infill, named for the high school at its center. Warren Avenue and Schaefer Road run alongside it and carry one of the largest concentrations of Arab American-owned bakeries, groceries and restaurants in the country. Ask me what has sold on a specific street.
