Things To Do
Motown Museum
This old Detroit home belies the greatness that was born here: the Motown Sound. But one step inside Hitsville, USA, the original house where Berry Gordy lived and recorded the Motown hits, and you'll catch the beat and spirit of this booming music era.
Detroit Institute of Arts
Considered to house one of the best art collections in the United States, the museum showcases everything from mummies to modern art and African masks to Monets in its outstanding collection of over 65,000 works. Don't miss the Center for African American Art, a gallery in the DIA that showcases 400 pieces, in various media, by African American artists.

The Guardian Building is an art deco masterpiece that cannot be missed in downtown Detroit. It is located on Griswold Avenue, and its exterior color makes it easily distinguishable from other major buildings in the city.

In more recent years, Eastern Market Partnership has built an infrastructure around the market to support our unwavering mission to enrich Detroit--nutritionally, culturally and economically.
Michigan Central
Most well-known as the home of Michigan Central Station, the Michigan Central campus is much more than the revitalization of a historic building; we are reimagining the very concept of mobility for the 21st century.
