One Detroit.  4 Million People.  One Story.

“I kept staring at the train station thinking, ‘What if? Wouldn’t that be amazing?’  If all we did was to restore this fabulous building and make it sparkle, that would be great. But we’re going to do much more than that. It’s really about creating the future of transportation. And doing it in Corktown.”
