About ZIP Code 48222

The Detroit River Station operates under dedicated ZIP code 48222 in southwest Detroit, Wayne County, Michigan. This designation serves the Detroit River Port facility, a shipping terminal located in the Vernor neighborhood, part of Southwest Detroit. The Detroit River, connecting Lake St. Clair to Lake Erie, has been a crucial commercial waterway since Detroit's founding, and specialized port facilities along its banks continue to handle cargo today. This unique postal designation has served the port facility for over two decades.

Located on 24th Street near the river, the Detroit River Port appears in postal records as the sole named building within this ZIP code. The compact 2 ZIP+4 count reflects the focused nature of port operations rather than a sprawling commercial district.
