A beautiful, giant, and dirty bargain toilet with people of all colors, kinds and more likely than not, deformities that has been a Metro Detroit staple and setting in every STD related legend/story for generations. I've been to many meet and greats and have made many purchases over the years here. I will sincerely miss it, and also sincerely NOT miss it.

I remember when this trade center was still around and there was amazingly great deals. Around 2011-2012 I was searching for Pokemon cards and around 2012-2017 I was searching for videogames. Last year, I was searching for videogames and there was this one vendor who was just a hoarder. Would never make a deal with anyone and his vendor spot was always messy. However, other vendors would have deals and their spots weren't messy. I've accumulated some videogames from Gibraltar because of the good deals. I've noticed some vendors would be scammers selling people inexpensive, unreliable items which you just need to keep an eye open for these scammers. Never have I eaten from the food court so I couldn't tell you about the food. Across from Gibraltar is a paintball arena which I went to for my 15th birthday. It wasn't a really good paintball arena because there would be mosquitoes and not a lot of cover. There was also auto swap meets here as well in the winter time.

So sad it closed down. Had the most unique aura to it. I used to go there as a kid, and it will be missed.
