Clara's on the River restaurant is situated in the former Michigan Central Train Station building, with its enormous watch tower and two foot thick walls. The building was built in 1888 when railways were the premier mode of transport. The 11000 square foot interior is fitted out with antique furniture and Tiffany stained-glass lamps. It has once again become a community landmark after a decade of abandonment and neglect. The “everyman's restaurant” hosts mellow music events from Wednesday to Friday evenings. In good weather, the jazz bands play on the patio, overlooking the riverside gardens.
