It is full of big old trees, fascinating buildings, many unique and varied homes, and a charming and popular downtown. It is also home to the Detroit Zoo [owned by the city of Detroit] and the Shrine of the Little Flower, notorious during the tenure of Father Coughlin. I loved riding my bike to the zoo, during the summers; on a quiet evening, you can hear some of the big cats roaring. This title is presented by a standing committee of the Royal Oak Historical Commission. Index.. Near Fine .
