Musician and metro Detroit native Bob Seger is getting a big honor.

A street will be named for him Friday in metro Detroit.

It all started back in May. Classic rock radio station WCSX launched a campaign to have a street named after Seger in Ann Arbor where the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer grew up.

It didn't work out...but the city of Allen Park stepped in.

Bob Seger Boulevard will be located near Allen Park's City Hall between Southfield Road and Philomene. 

WCSX will be holding a party for Seger as part of the official re-naming Friday afternoon from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
