Seeing as these towns are LOST, we thought of them as "LOST IN SPACE" so as Space Cadets we decided to turn them into caches.
Located at Seven Mile, Grand River, and Five Points Road, this Redford township town of many corners was a thriving commercial center and railway station around 1900. Before then, Five Points had been called Millford Road. It was renamed for the five corners or points at the intersection, every one of which had a store or business, including a post office which operated there until 1918. Five Points is the city's far northwestern boundary street. Annexed by Detroit in 1926.
