This IHOP/Applebee's concept could be duplicated across the country. 'I really feel that we are participating in the rebirth of the city.'

'I never thought that, in my lifetime, I would see so many people in downtown Detroit on the weekends - it's really remarkable,' he said. Schostak said he expects the new IHOP/Applebee's to draw customers from nearby Marriott hotels as well as from downtown offices and the increasing number of weekend visitors in Detroit. It also will be the second Applebee's in the city since the fall 2015 opening of a restaurant on 8 Mile in the Gateway Marketplace shopping center. The IHOP in the new restaurant will be the second IHOP in Detroit and won't affect the IHOP restaurant on Jefferson east of downtown. 'Nobody else in the world has this Applebee's/IHOP combination, so this is very exciting,' Mark Schostak, executive chairman at TEAM Schostak, said Monday. The first-of-its-kind restaurant was announced last December.
