The Paradise Valley district of downtown Detroit has two new destinations: the multi-disciplinary Virgil Carr Arts Center and Fish Market @ Paradise Valley, a seafood restaurant.

Excerpts:

The Arts League of Michigan will be developing the Virgil H. Carr Cultural Arts Center in the Harmonie Club building at 311 E. Grand River Ave. Set to open in January 2009, plans call for two floors of the building, approximately 14,500 square feet, to be used for exhibition and studio space.

Frank Taylor, who owns or operates several other Detroit restaurants, including South Beach Pizza Bar, Seldom Blues and the Detroit Breakfast House and Grill, will be opening the Detroit Fish Market @ Paradise Valley in the space formerly occupied by Intermezzo. Taylor seeks to fill a niche left by the closure of Chuck Muer's, with an emphasis on fresh seafood in an upscale, casual environment.
