The Detroit River International Wildlife Refuge follows the Detroit River and Lake Erie from just south of Detroit all the way through Monroe County to the Ohio border.  The refuge headquarters/gateway is planned for an area near the Humbug Marsh at the Trenton/Gibraltar border.  The area was once an industrial site and it is now being “greened” by refuge planners.

Metromode has a nice overview of a recent effort in which volunteers and refuge staff planted 200 trees at the refuge gateway.  Link:
