There are some really neat things happening in Detroit right now. The possibilities are endless really... watch these videos, DIY paradise

megE,
Sorry to burst your bubble but companies like that aren't exactly bringing new and sustainable business to Detroit or any of the surrounding areas. I'm glad they're able to make a buck off of the dying giant but lets face it - they come in, take what they need and get the fuck out.
Detroit recently has been praised as this DIY paradise for hipsters and artist-types alike but the fact is virtually all of those people are doing nothing to bring more money into the city and it's suburbs. They come in, scrape on by through low-rent housing and cheap living and move on to the next hipster commune eventually.
Gah.. now i'm ranting...

There's a few larger corp groups moving downtown. Compuware is there. Quicken will be down there soon. Afternoons in the Campus Martius area is pretty nice actually.
- most of those buildings are owned by dan gilbert—who also owns the cavaliers. he's buying up detroit.doesnotexist

Detroit is a "shining example" of capitalism, greed, ignorance, excesses, etc... This is what makes America great!
