Discovering Downtown Detroit with Quicken Loans

In celebration of our first year in Detroit, Quicken Loans takes to the streets and asks local business owners and downtown Detroit leaders why now is the best time to be living and working in downtown Detroit. Join Mason (from WGPR's Mason in the Morning show) and Shannon Murphy (from Mojo In The Morning on Channel 955) as we tour downtown Detroit and showcase a few of the great people who are rebuilding the city. It's been a great year for us in Detroit and we're looking forward to many, many more. Downtown Detroit is on the move. And we're happy to be part of the movement!

This sounds alot like Buffalo, NY right now!!! So many great things happening and the media will only focus on the negative stories.

[StrongDetroit]

Very nice, I like it when the positive is brought to the fore front.

A toast to a Strong Detroit

Why is everybody not from Detroit surprised? Detroiters knew we had the JEWEL all the time.

@HARDROCKONLY1 agreed but I wouldn't say Demolish, I'd say renovate and save as many as we can and build infill that mimicks the older homes. Detroit has ONE thing that most other cities don't and that is that the majority of homes and buildings are historic. On the strength of us being too poor when many of the other major cities were going through "urban renewal" and demolishing everything :)

[RYZEDetroit]

very cool! videos like this make me even more excited about me moving in the greater downtown area next yr! btw Jason at BCK is cute! ;)
