Fort Pontchartrain, a Wyndham Hotel, occupies historically significant ground at 2 Washington Boulevard in Detroit's Financial District — the site of the city's original French settlement and the location where Fort Detroit was established. The hotel opened in 1965, designed by King & Lewis with angular bay windows that frame views of the Detroit River and the city skyline from nearly every floor. Following major renovations, it operates today as a 367-room full-service hotel with Wyndham Green Certification for sustainable practices. The hotel's 32,000 square feet of event space spans 20 flexible configurations and accommodates gatherings from 10 to 700 guests. The Grand Terrace Ballroom anchors the lineup at 10,455 square feet, seating 400 for banquets and hosting up to 500 for cocktail receptions. The Windsor Ballroom, Plaza Ballroom, 25th-floor Summit Room, and open-air Balcony give planners a range of room sizes and settings. Three on-site restaurants — Urban Cellars, Tabacchi, and Top of the Pontch — support catering, and a dedicated meetings director oversees coordination from booking through execution.

Historic Fort Wayne occupies a stretch of Detroit's riverfront with roots that predate the fort itself. The land hosted the signing of the Treaty of Springwells at the close of the War of 1812, and it holds deep significance to Native American cultures of the region. The star fort was constructed in 1845, and the federal government transferred the entire property to the City of Detroit in 1976; it is now managed by the city's Parks and Recreation Division as an open riverfront heritage site. Several distinct spaces across the grounds accommodate events of different scales and character. The Old Barracks — the oldest surviving structure on site — is a limestone building whose five ground-floor mess halls suit meetings and indoor gatherings. The 15-acre Parade Ground along the river is designed for large outdoor events including festivals and sporting occasions, with restroom facilities available in the adjacent building. Jefferson Field and the Star Fort, both dating to 1842, provide a dramatic open-air setting for smaller outdoor events. The grounds are open daily from 6 AM to 8 PM, and event rental inquiries are handled through the on-site team.
