Traffic Jam restaurant owners Scott Lowell and Carolyn Howard walk past an old barn on March 27, 2014 in Detroit. The two restaurant owners want to rebuild a western Michigan barn from the 1880s in Detroit as a venue for events such as weddings, an art gallery or some other new use. Lowell and Howard, the married co-owners of the Traffic Jam and Snug Restaurant, said that they had the roughly 7,500-square-foot wooden barn disassembled, loaded onto a flatbed trailer and trucked to Detroit. The barn, which once stood in Alto, near Grand Rapids, has long been in Howard's family. Built in 1888, it was home to dairy cows and also held hay. (AP Photo/The Detroit Free Press, Regina H. Boone)
