Detroit Inspires
A city that's urban and energetic with a touch of the underground
New is a word familiar in Detroit. New restaurants, entertainment districts, retailers and businesses are everywhere. All this new stuff is a sign that Detroit is America's great comeback city - an undeniable "IT" place to visit with its own take on renewal that's inspiring.
Empty areas, once forgotten, are being redeveloped as parks, co-op gardens and flower farms. Railroad lines from the 1830s have been transformed into bike trails decorated with commissioned graffiti art. And new creative start-ups now calling Detroit home are bringing young entrepreneurs and artist to the city, giving it an edgier and experimental feel.
Detroit's Culinary Scene is Erupting with Creativity
This is where the deep-dish square pizza reigns supreme and the Coney dog was first assembled. The city America media are now calling a food mecca with countless new gastro pubs, distilleries, French bistros and burger bars, many featuring locally grown ingredients on their menus.
