Near the 8 Mile Road, which the eponymous movie made famous, the house where Eminem spent his childhood at 19946 Dresden St was to become a museum to the glory of the singer. However, fate decided otherwise.
While young Eminem moved frequently during his childhood, the house on Dresden Street remains in his heart. In her book My Son Marshall, My Son Eminem, his mother states that the rapper had a model of the house made to take with him on tour. The modest wooden building, located in an almost abandoned neighborhood, remained closed for a long time. Until that day in November 2013 when it went up in smoke while a fan had just made an offer to buy it to make a museum.
