Detroit Overview
Detroit is the largest city in the midwestern state of Michigan.
Near Downtown, the neoclassical Detroit Institute of Arts is famed for
the Detroit Industry Murals painted by Diego Rivera, and inspired by the
city’s ties to the auto industry, giving it the nickname "Motor City."
Detroit is also the birthplace of Motown Records, whose chart-topping
history is on display at their original headquarters, Hitsville U.S.A.
