Westin Book-Cadillac Hotel

Fort Shelby Hotel

These renovations are bringing back luxury hotels such as Hilton, Westin, Double-Tree, and four seasons along with the already established Marriot in the Renaissance Center. Many of these hotels have been out of the city for nearly three decades, but new growth and wealth is once again attracting them.

City Enhancements

Projects are happening all around Detroit to enhance landscaping, parks, plazas, and playgrounds.

-The Detroit International Riverfront has a newly constructed plaza and promenade of parks that stretch for 2-3 miles and includes miles of trees, fountains, and engraved slate.
