Travel Like You Live Here: Detroit
Native Detroiters Lauren Hood and Adriel Thornton offer an insider’s view on visiting Motor City.
Travel Like You Live Here is a series in which wonky locals show CityLab around their home turf.
“People say ‘Detroit is dead’ or ‘Detroit died.’ I can look back and know that that was never the case,” Adriel Thornton said. “Detroit never died. It might have gone to sleep for a minute, but it never died. The people and the energy just would not let it.”
