Detroit's New Center
Author: Randall Fogelman
Detroit's New Center takes readers on a journey from New Center's origins as a planned business district to its current life as a thriving area where Detroiters live, work, and play. New Center is a diverse and vibrant neighborhood that offers shopping, entertainment, and dining among landmark architecture, historic districts, and contemporary homes and businesses. After General Motors built their headquarters three miles north of downtown, the Fisher Brothers conceived the idea of a "new center" and constructed the landmark Fisher and New Center Buildings.
