The area was once home to Charles Lindberg and the Dodge Brothers who tinkered in their garage to create their world famous automobiles. Today, Midtown is a vibrant blend of history, luxury apartments, townhouses and loft, restaurants, galleries and Detroit’s own Wayne State University, the College for Creative Studies, the Detroit Medical Center and the Cultural Center — all making this a very attractive place to be. Midtown hosts two million visitors annually, has a daytime population of over 50,000 and has the largest concentration of cultural, educational and medical institutions in southeast Michigan. It has two radio stations, its own symphony, three historic inns, 11 theatres, six museums, 35 restaurants, 11 galleries, a hardware store and a dry cleaner, all within two square miles—making it one of the best walkable communities in Detroit.” - From the University Cultural Center Association’s website, http://detroitmidtown.com/ DETROIT HISTORICAL MUSEUM: AREA MUSEUMS & LIBRARIES Museum hours on Saturday, March 7 are: 9:00 a.m. to Charles H.

Focus groups identified non-burdensome ways that project partners were already collecting or could easily collect information to quantify and track impact. This feedback was developed into quantitative surveys that were administered via partners in 2018 and analyzed in early 2019. Forty one percent of City of Design partners collected or are planning to collect data related to their project’s impact. At this early stage of the work, event attendance and demographic data is easiest to collect, and only three partners were able to measure the impact of programming on changes in perspective, thoughts on participation, or building usage. An additional three partners collected data on investment or revenue from public and private sources. Data collection is ongoing. Wherever impact is cited within this report, it has been sourced via these partner data collection efforts. Interviews to inform the development of the three case studies were conducted in March, 2019, by EarlyWorks, llc. 2 DETROIT UNESCO CITY OF DESIGN | 2019 MONITORING REPORT By championing Detroit design, we contribute to the As a result, we are happy to announce that Detroit development of a thriving city that offers opportunities Creative Corridor Center has become Design Core for all.
