Im from Cleveland, never visited Detroit before but went there this weekend. I was incredibly surprised and impressed by the city and it is now my pick for most underrated city in the Midwest. I drove in and spent most of my time downtown and around Midtown/Corktown. The architecture, history, and overall energy of the city were all super impressive and I wish I had more time to explore. Coming from Cleveland, where people constantly talk down on Rust Belt cities, I was honestly shocked by how much momentum Detroit seems to have right now. The riverwalk was amazing, the food scene was great, and seeing how much development is happening downtown made me pretty jealous. I hope to return to the city soon and do more exploring!
