The Detroit Bus Station is an intercity bus station in the Corktown neighborhood of Detroit, Michigan. The station, managed by Greyhound Lines, also serves Barons Bus Lines, Flixbus and Indian Trails. The current building was constructed in 1991.

Detroit has seen intercity bus transit since the 1920s, when a union bus terminal opened on Grand River Avenue.[1] In 1937, a Greyhound Lines bus terminal opened on Grand River Avenue, which would be in operation until 1958. In 1958, this station was replaced by another Greyhound terminal, built in the mid-century modern style on Congress Street. When the 1958 terminal opened, it was celebrated for bringing a modern terminal to a central location, however, it would later gain a negative reputation. The current bus station was opened in 1991 and is planned to be replaced as of 2023.[2]
