Exploring the Districts of Detroit
Exploring the Districts of Detroit
In Detroit, many of the really great destinations are nestled in the communities that spiral out of the city. Easily mistaken as purely quiet suburbia, these districts of Detroit possess vibrant downtowns and other unique attractions that make them worth exploring.
South Oakland
Reveling in its recent resurgence, Ferndale is home to an increasing multitude of progressive professionals, along with artists and musicians. This is a community of people who value a walkable community with eclectic shops and restaurants. Moving north on Woodward Avenue, things become more polished in Royal Oak, filled with successful professionals who support venues such as Main Art Theater and the newly revamped Royal Oak Music Theater. The Detroit Zoo is also located within walking distance from downtown. Things continue to get glitzier traveling north on Woodward Avenue to prestigious Birmingham. The charming downtown features trendy upscale shops and even trendier residents. A bit east of Birmingham, Troy is a must for one main reason: The Somerset Collection, beautifully designed with soaring ceilings, palm trees, and brilliant skylights. The shopping mecca is high-fashion, high-style, and high-prices.
North Oakland
Once a remote rural community filled with rolling apple orchards and horse farms, Rochester today brims with upscale developments, yet the charm of country life lingers with quaint cider mills and a historic picturesque downtown. In the center of town, more than 200 specialty boutiques, restaurants, and more await. The newest shopping hotspot is the Village of Rochester Hills, a 357,000-square-foot outdoor shopping district featuring more than 50 national and local retail shops and restaurants. Mega mall Great Lakes Crossings is also nearby.

City of Detroit Landmark Enchants Guests with Dazzling Theater Productions
Envisioned by the Fisher Brothers as “the most beautiful building in the world,” the Fisher Building in Detroit was designed by Albert Kahn in the early 1920s. The seven brothers were sons of Lawrence Fisher, Sr., a Ohio carriage maker. Coming to Detroit, the brothers founded Fisher Body Company, which eventually was bought out by General Motors. Their aim was to create a building in Detroit that would express the Fishers’ appreciation of their new hometown.
When completed, the Fisher Building interior included a variety of marble from places such as France, Germany, Italy, and Greece. A barrel vaulted ceiling was decorated with cherubs and eagles. Along the building’s arcade, visitors are met with chandeliers hanging from the ceiling and in panels along the walls. Between 500 to 600 of the chandelier’s lights are replaced at a time. Visitors to the Fisher were greeted by men in white who would park their cars; free babysitting for shoppers, complete with a carousel and nurses; and a lavish lunch in the famed Huyler’s L’Aiglon tea room.

Detroit City Shines with Tinsel-Town Locations
Detroit City Shines with Tinsel-Town Locations
With the filming of blockbusters such as 8 Mile, The Island, and Transformers in local Detroit locations, filmmakers are discovering Detroit is a city rich with extraordinary film location possibilities. From an island park located in the heart of the city to gritty warehouses to a vibrant cultural and entertainment district, Detroit has everything that filmmakers are seeking today to make their next film project a visual success.
According to a January 2008 Detroit Free Press article, Detroit’s birth as a film destination isn’t just about commercial feature films. Producers of music videos, instructional DVDs, advertising, and television shows will work anywhere there’s a tax payoff. Which is why, not surprisingly, a number of movies set in Detroit, including Four Brothers and Assault on Precinct 13 were shot largely in Ontario. Employing a tax-break strategy has allowed Canada to enjoy success in the film industry; provinces are competing with one another to provide filmmakers the best deals. Now, various states have begun developing their own tax-break incentives and proposals.

Undergoing the country’s largest urban redevelopment boom, Detroit serves as an exciting and unique destination for groups of all sizes. Redevelopment efforts encompass more than billion in new development under way. The international destination, located only one mile from Windsor, Canada, is also accessible by way of a 90-minute flight for 60 percent of the nation’s population.
Meeting attendees are welcomed at the Detroit Metro Airport, featuring a new two-million-square-foot terminal where international and domestic gates are located in one facility. Here, the brand new 404-room Westin Hotel, connected to the terminal, welcomes guests with superior amenities. In addition, the airport also offers numerous shops, restaurants and services, as well as 90 E-ticket kiosks and parking within walking distance of the new terminal.
