"When you walk in here you're actually walking into a dream, a manifestation of black men who had 1 idea," he said.
"The Avenue of Fashion is home for me. I grew up in this area. I took piano lessons in this area," said Sevyn Jones of Skin Bar VII.
That's why Jones felt like this is where she had to open her first spa.
"We specialize in skincare, so we do, facials chemical peels, derma planing, micro-needling," she said.
And there are plenty of high-end skincare products to choose from like Farm House Fresh.
"This is also one of Oprah's favorites," she said.
"Good Times on the Avenue is a fine casual dining, where you can come have a good time, good food, good drinks, and you can be with good people," said LaDonna Reynolds.
These three businesses were all awarded cash from Motor City Match to launch their businesses.
"It took me three years to get this building together and now small business Saturday is the day we finally get to shine," Jones said.
