from Detroit Michigan Michigan Central
Station built in 1913 once a glorious
cultural Beacon beautiful piece of
architecture it's now been abandoned for
more than three decades well Ford Motor
Company decided to bring it back with
hopes of making it the centerpiece of a
new hotspot of which the city can be
proud some are calling it the most
impressive restoration of an historic
structure in US history this is the
Ellis Island of Michigan and
Detroit people arrived here their
grandparents arrived here for more than
three decades Detroit's Michigan Central
Station has been abandoned it's really
been such a visible symbol and in some
ways uh a little bit exploited as a
symbol of the decline of
[Music]
Detroit but in 2018 the Ford murder
company bought the station and after a
nearly billion dollar investment to
restore and expand the Historic Landmark
it's once again open to the
public it's just magnificent I remember
this from when I was a kid and it's
beautiful just the transformation was
made is amazing it's has to be the most
impressive restoration of a historic
structure in the United States ever
Michigan Central Station first opened in
1913 and at its height it drew more than
4,000 Travelers every day but in 1988
the Station closed after declines in
ridership and Decades of population loss
in
Detroit Michigan Central remained
abandoned until Ford came along over
over 3,000 specialized trade workers
work to restore the station including
one who spent more than 400 hours
recreating this Corinthian column even
regular citizens contributed in
unexpected ways there was a clock over
the carriage house and the Ford team was
contacted by somebody basically saying
we have the clock if you want it we'll
basically leave it in an alley at
midnight in this location and remain
anonymous with Michigan Central Station
as its anchor Ford aims to develop the
area around it into a 30 acre Tech and
culture hub for the city with Parks
restaurants retail and office spaces
Ford estimates that it'll be years
before every business space is filled
but they say over a 100 startups have
already come to campus this building
tells an honest story about the city it
represented the glory of a certain time
period And it represented the
disinvestment of a time period And
there's something really extraordinary
about having this Rich historical
platform to the work of the future
Detroit's population grew in 2023 for
the first time since
1957 developers of Michigan Central
Station hope their Hub will play a part
in that upward Trend once you build a
place people want to be you start seeing
more and more people think twice about
the city and see what many of us have
known for a long time and that's Detroit
is an amazing American city and in my
opinion the best
[Applause]
