The old Nankin Mill Tavern sits empty At 33700 Ann Arbor Trail, addressed as being in Westland, even though it's closer to Livonia…..but I'll get back to the tavern in a couple of minutes. The tavern was once part of the historic Nankin Mills Nature Center, just down the road at 33175 Ann Arbor Trail. The area is centered around an old grist mill which began construction in 1835, abandoned, and finally completed in 1842. With new income came new settlers. With new people came new businesses, and pretty soon a community became obvious – and it was named ‘Pike's Peak'.
