About Detroit
Cars, sports and music have defined metro Detroit for decades, and Michigan’s largest city has hip new attractions and restaurants to welcome visitors from across the country. From stunning cultural institutions like The Detroit Institute of Arts, The Henry Ford and Cranbrook, new hotels and stadiums, theatre, entertainment, symphony and the arts, Detroit is an interesting destination with much to offer.
 The region is currently undergoing a renaissance with new developments and attractions. Downtown Detroit’s development boom is unparalleled in the country. Campus Martius Park is a 1.6 acre park downtown and a centerpiece of the city’s revitalization. Modeled after the world’s best public parks, it’s a beautiful urban space, where people can relax, eat, see concerts in summer or ice-skate in winter.
Another major transformation features a $500 million development project on the east riverfront. Its centerpiece is the General Motors Renaissance Center, boasting a renovated Marriott Hotel and a Wintergarden, a five-story glass atrium that overlooks the river offering shopping and dining. A network of parks will enhance the Detroit International Riverfront, including the 31-acre Tri-Centennial State Park and Harbor, Michigan’s first urban state park. General Motors opened a half mile of RiverWalk and the $25 million GM Plaza and Promenade behind the Renaissance Center.
