Trainor's Bar - Royal Oak, Michigan (Gay bar)
Trainor's Bar (Now closed) was located at Woodward and 10 Mile Rd. According to Bob Damron's 1968 guide book it was a mixed crowd and or tourists. It was also "Collegiate" If you know anything about this bar please post. It could have been torn down to accommodate I-696.

IIt was not torn down for I-696. That would have had it there beyond 1981.
ReplyDeleteThey began moving or tearing down homes fir 686 in the mid 60s. Mist notably the area east of Campbell/Hilton on the North side of 10 Mile as far east to between John R abd Dequindre.
