Would love to see Detroit make a comeback, it has great potential

Detroit/ Michigan will forever be my home! I never knew I could miss and love a place so much😭❤️

The neighborhoods are now being developed. Detroit's a big city. Can't do all of it at once.

Very nice video! Really shows the beauty of our city! 10-15 years ago you couldn’t even walk around downtown during the day! Let alone at night! It’s come such a long way! Makes me proud to be born and raised here.

Detroit has always been on the rise! It is a gritty place with heart. I lived in Windsor but spent most of my time in Detroit. I must say the camera work makes it look phenomenal!!!

I can tell you this video is not Propaganda. Certainly, yes we do look for the positives and we are going to focus on that. Admittedly I am an outsider, but I am also one who have profiled other northern cities. Cities like Buffalo, Cleveland, Chicago, who have worse problems than Detroit and do not have the metro area revitalization that Detroit is having. Yes there are still struggles, but that is what makes Detroit so special. When you have had to overcome alot, you become stronger. God Bless the good people of Detroit, and keep up the good fight, believe it or not you are doing better than many other Northern Cities.

Detroit the only major US city that faces Southbound towards Canada...👍👍

I live in Detroit, its coming back. The neighborhoods have more community involvement in some areas. A lot of new Parks have been built. It's work in progress! Great camera work!

They have done a great job in the "Down Town Area" …. and yes I think Detroit is making a good come back ……. its got a ways to go to be sure …. but its improving …. The outer areas are still pretty bad ……. I go to Detroit for work about 2 or 3 times a month ……. been doing this for the past 20 years … I have seen the improvement ITS REAL …. I never thought I would say this, but I LIKE DETROIT !!

There's absolutely nothing wrong with Detroit; it's some of the people living there that is the problem.

This video shows the good parts of Detroit looks nice. Other vids showing the shit hole neighborhoods. Im from the south i hope Detroit continues to improve if it is. Detroit is still our ( America's) motor city. Cmon detroiters get it together.

I'm from Ohio but I lived in Detroit for a few years and I loved it the people are great and it has so much history ❤

I have lived in Detroit downtown since 1991. I always enjoyed the city, despite its reputation and dangerous aspects, and I can certify that in the last five years the city downtown and Midtown has absolutely exploded into a wonderful place to live in. Many of the neighborhoods surrounding still need a lot of attention, and frankly, I don’t know if they will ever get it. However, the city core is absolutely fabulous. It’s such a cool city, so much to do, great architecture and people, wonderful restaurants and parks. Canada is five minutes away and a great place to visit during the day, Belle Isle since the state is taking over is absolutely beautiful, it’s the largest island city park in the United States and looks wonderful. Great museums, fabulous sports venues, tons of restaurants, there’s so much to do it’s really a great place to live in. I always find it amusing with the haters on here who absolutely refuse to acknowledge what’s going on, they generally live miles and miles away, or have never returned in recent years, yet continue to to trash it all the time. Live here, like I have for the last 25 years plus and I can certify that this town is turning around beautifully.

I’m so very glad and grateful that Detroit is making a great comeback! Beautiful video. Thank you for sharing this with us!

This is a great video. I love America and I want to see Detroit succeed and be a great metropolis again . This is a great start . 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Despite its persistent serious problems, Detroit is still one of the best cities in the US. It is a historic architectural treasure chest that contains the world’s third largest collection of historic older skyscrapers built before 1930. It has beautiful radial thoroughfares and a very impressive waterfront. It has a world class art museum and beautiful parks. The people are very friendly and down to earth. It has all the professional sports and it is a major music and entertainment hub. I always wanted to come and visit Detroit and spend some time exploring this interesting historic city. Many of my family, relatives, and friends felt that I needed psychiatric help for listing Detroit as one of my favorite cities however I ignored their negative ignorant opinions since most of them are either scared of Detroit or just hate the city for no apparent reason. I hope that Detroit continues on its path of revitalization and economic diversification.

I once parked my car in Detroit and someone stole the air out of my tires.

As a native of Detroit, I thank you for this video. It really justifies how far this city has become and how beautiful it truly is. I also love your videos of northern Michigan. People sleep on this state and your videos prove why people should come visit! Lots to see and do. Thank you :)

I’ll be in Detroit this February for the first time since the 1980s I’m really looking forward to seeing how much this city has changed since my last visit there.

Detroit has been making wonderful progress! I was there last summer to visit Motown and Henry Ford. I loved the old historic buildings. They have the city’s “Detroit Renovation” or “rebirth” currently in progress. Also love the downtown area, super nice!

When I was a kid I was flying from Monterrey Mexico (my hometown) to canada (via DFW) I remember the captan saying "ladies and gentleman we are currently flying over detroit we and are crossing into to canada now" men I was so happy to fly over this city maybe because I was a fan of robocop It was a city I always wanted for visit, for me it it was like a San Francisco level must visit city, later I found out about its crisis, and its downtown stuck in another era, kind of sad, currently I still want to visit this city and good to see this video it has an awesome art deco downtown. you se in very very few cities.

I'm a Detroiter. We keep making the top coolest places on the Planet lists. It's pretty sweet to be a part of. The firs Post Industrial Recovery. Think what you will morons, this place is awesome!

I love that you did this video! I grew up in Detroit and the narrative that I would often hear from outsiders always had me like 😒...”but, how are you going to tell me about the city I grew up in”. Like most places, there are developed and under developed areas. “Good parts”/“bad parts”. Just with the decline of the auto industry there was clear economic impact. But, let’s not forget the gospel, jazz, electronic, rock, rap and sports. Talk about grit, grind, humility and realness all mixed into one place. This is Detroit.

Go Detroit , always had a good time there , saw Prince there , David Bowie , Iggy POP , Motown and even Dolly Parton , hope Detroit comes back , Amour and Love from Montréal❤️

Detroit:Become Human

Detroit..once the great city, founded in 1701. People came from all over the world to visit it..once called..'The Paris of the U.S.' Since, 1970, Detroit has lost over forty percent of it's population. My Grandparents, owned a grocery store at W. Jefferson and Wanmaker, from the 20's through 69'. They closed it down after the 67' riots when the area became to dangerous. My mother graduated from Cass Tech in 1940. My father was a engineer at Packard back in the late 40's. My parents moved to Bloomfield Hills in 1963..and to be honest haven't looked back. I drove down Woodward, through Highland Park, the other day, and truth be told..I was pretty nervous. And yes, I have lived in Chicago for ten years and lower Manhattan for a couple. So, unless you live in very tight radius in Detroit.. it's still a very dangerous city to live.

Thank you Detroit City has a lot of goodness still in it.

Make Detroit great again !

Moved back to Chicago after living in Detroit for 4 years. I never knew that I'd miss it so much!!! Truly love Detroit as my second home.

Thank you for getting the word out to people of the renovation going on in our city. Detroit forever.

" I've been Blessed since Birth. " " Thanks Mom & Dad, R.I.P. "

It used to be one of the richest city's in the world

Detroiters have always had an Attitude like a Phoenix " we rise from the ashes!" Dust ourselves off and keep pushin!

Detroit WILL make a comeback!!

Best video of the city of Detroit by far, nothing new, but Beautiful images. Nice Editing wording love yr Camera settings. Great job keep up the good work, we need this type of talent in Detroit,

Detroit is a great place to live. I know this because I live here. It is not the most beautiful city because the development of the place puts a lot of emphasis on ease of getting around in a car. However, people here are really nice. It is just unfortunate that it has got a bad reputation outside. I love it here and I see this place as a hidden gem.

*I was born in Detroit and they were saying Detroit is coming back when I lived there. I visited back in 2013 and even hearing and seeing things on the internet of Detroit building downtown. The problem is that the only thing that seems to be coming back is downtown but the inner city and the way people run the city needs to change. It's still a very boring place to live and I pray that Detroit comes all the way back because I've always said that Detroit has so much potential. I'm so glad that I don't live there any more.*

Its the good HARD WORKING people who make this city what it it today. Despite what happened with GM, DETROIT will bounce back from this and be even more stronger. Gotta love my hometown!!

I'm from the UK but something about Detroit fascinates me

I live in England and have always been fascinated with Detroit; definitely the first place I would go to if I went to America.

I love Detroit!!! ❤️

Thank you so much for showing some of the nicer areas of Detroit. All these videos, all they want to show, is the desolate, burned-out, screwed up parts. But Detroit is just like any other big city. It's got bad parts, and it's got beautiful parts. And it seems that all anyone ever wants to focus on is the bad parts. For once we have a video that shows the nice side of Detroit. Detroit is a beautiful city. You just need to know where to look. And this video shows a few of those more attractive parts. I mean, you have no idea. If all you look at are those nasty videos that show all those desolate scenes with burned-out houses... Try and Google "Indian village"... look at the video on Indian village and tell me about Detroit? Look at Palmer Park or Sherwood Forest. There is a lot of beauty to be found in Detroit. The images in this video... The Renaissance Center have you ever visited there? Try it and then see its image of wealth and Perfection. It is spotless! Yes it's a confusing maze, it's a city unto itself, it has its own ZIP code like they said, but it is amazing! Don't kill Detroit until you've seen what it really has to offer. This is a world-class City with every Museum, Hotel, Zoo, every attraction that any large city would have... we've got it, and then we've got some extra shit too! We have got it all here! Fast fact... Belle Isle, the largest island park in the nation... Yeah .... bigger than Central Park in New York people... let's hear it, bigger than Central Park! And it is beautiful. It is beautiful too. It is one Island out in the middle of the water that is just completely gorgeous. And there's everything.... Forest and streams, and it's really something to see and all we have to do is drive over a bridge to get to it. It is otherwise completely available to us as Detroiters! So, yes, there are neighborhoods that are burned-out, screwed up ... but if you can't see past that, if you can't see the city for what it really has to offer... everything that is.... we are on those lighted neighborhoods then you're just ....being blind, because there is a gorgeous shining City beyond that which is on the surface. There is a really pretty, beautiful, workable, livable city, beyond those stupid nasty videos that they show you. We live here, and we love it, and it is amazing, and there's so much more Than what those bad videos show you. There's so much more... the only way you could know would be to come here and see for yourself.

I LOVE my former home. My mom was born & raised in Detroit. My relatives on her side all lived there. I lived there through my teens & twenties. Graduated from high school there & got my first full time job in downtown Detroit when I was 17. Transferred in my job to Phoenix, AZ when I was 27, but I've always loved & missed my home town. Return frequently because I still have family & friends there. I LOVE the Great Lakes. My BF had a boat & we were always out on the Detroit River or Lake St. Clair.

I love Detroit. Good Video

I've always knew Detroit would eventually make a comeback! My last visit was around 2005. My first was in 1977 when it was booming. I am certain that it still has a long way to go, especially in the residential areas. There are miles of abandoned and dilapidated communities and structures but thanks to the entrepreneurs and investors, there is hope! Hats off to those who stayed behind and endured through it all.

SF Bay Area native here, but I'm quietly rooting for this city. I've never been but I love Detroit. Detroit style pizza is the best on earth too!

It looks nice from downtown being redeveloped, but that's just an area of roughly 7 square miles in a city of over 140 square miles. There are still plenty of inner city residential neighborhoods that are in rough shape and won't be revitalized for decades.

Haters and nonbelievers would say it's trash and not coming back of course...

Born and raised in Detroit. I can tell you without watching this video that it is propaganda. The people and leadership of Detroit in the last 25 years have virtually destroyed all the great houses and neighborhoods there. Schools have been closed. It's beyond the "ghetto" stage....it is a war zone and wasteland after you get out of the downtown area. Downtowns do not make a city alone. A lost generation lives in Detroit and it's going nowhere. It's very telling that this video is staying within the downtown area alone.

He was shot 10 times while recording this footage. You are a real MVP.

Detroit has really start to look better and improve over the last 10 years, before it was all run down

I'm loving these little videos by TampaAerialMedia. Very well thought out and fun to watch. After watching the two videos on California, I came back for more :)

I love this city!

Just a French guy loving Detroit so bad.

I had the pleasure of visiting Detroit last summer. I will be back again this year.

Yes most of the city looks a lot worst than this. The downtown area only covers 7 of its 141 sq miles of the city. However, I view it as they have to start somewhere and it will eventually spread into the neighborhoods. It may take a while but it will happen. It's going to more than a few years to turn a city this size around. Plus city services has been improving under the current mayor(excluding the public schools which is a mess).

Detroit 😍

I was born and raised in Michigan, but just moved to the city about a half year ago. And I have to say...it is really a culture that is heartwarming and wonderful. What's great about the city is that all the assholes stay in the suburbs. There is no reason to fear the city as long as you stay out of the worst parts. But even so...I do not feel unsafe at all in any part of the city. When I drive down West Buchanan street, for instance, I see nothing but potential for growth. I live in West Village and I adore my neighborhood. I love all the little things...going down to the corner market, riding my bike downtown, enjoying the gritty nooks and crannies. If you have no appreciation for beauty or uniqueness, you will hate the city. But if that's the case, PLEASE stay in the suburbs so that Detroit city continues to have a nice culture full of wonderful people of all backgrounds.

Thank you for spotlighting our delightful D! Cheers & Mahaloha, Miny Calapa

Finally, a positive video about Detroit

Born in Detroit, growing up there, working for NBD, the GM Building on West Grand Blvd, and the GM World Hdqs REN Cen, I am glad to see Detroit on the rise. Ignorant haters will always exist and look for negatives and place blame. GM is negatively impacted by Trumps policies, tariffs and rising steel costs. Downtown and north of Eight Mile Rd is beautiful or. Northville, Novi, Birmingham, etc. Additional emphasis on the inner city will make once again a world class city. Y’all need to stop hatein’.

You guys are defiantly professionals. You did an Amazing job with the Detroit video looking forward to watching your other videos..

Very nice video for the Detroit Michigan where I line in...thanks for the video sharing ....very high quality footages..

someone from Detroit? I am Brazilian and my dream is to live in the United States and I love the city of Detroit. 🇧🇷🇺🇸

Good Place to Invest in if It's on rise.

Just because there is more investment into Detroit, doesn't mean it gives the green light for people to move there. Detroit still has a lot of criminals to clean up and a lot of people who might turn into criminals at a later date, but there is potential once that gets fixed.

If you are a tourist and want to go to see something new Detroit is one of those cities you need to go to, my city is making a comeback!

Love my city! Go Pistons! #DvE

Is this the most quintessential American city? As a non-American, this just screams America to me

Wow this city revitalization is amazing...

Beautiful video. I'm so proud to be from here!

I hope it comes back strong like it was back in the day.

Detroit is also the city of the great Alice Cooper! Beautiful video! Greetings from Italy!

A lot of the abandoned buildings like the historical Michigan Central Station need remodeling and refurbishing. Detroit definitely needs some more tourist attractions like a few more museums, churches, amusement parks, and shopping centers

Detroit the reason why you mfs have a car

I love when people talk about a city and all they have to say is ugly and if its getting better they call it gentrification! Do something to be part of the change... Educate yourself and be an entrepreneur or get a career in whatever is thriving in the area! Bitching doesn’t fix anything actions do!

Well , I was checking my KZfaq liked videos and found this . Just wanted to say that I liked this video few months when I knew that I will be moving to Detroit . Tbh after I read a couple of comments i thought that Michigan isn’t a great state and it would be shitty to live in it. After I moved here ( I’ve been living here for almost 2 months ) I found out that Michigan is a great state and Detroit is an astonishing city . I actually used to live in Dubai one of the most modern cities in the world but I apparently fell in love with Detroit . Idk what’s making some of you guys despise this country . Let’s praise our Michigan !

One of the best videos about Downtown Detroit!!! Excellent job!!!

Thank You for this excellent video😊👍 I had no idea how pretty downtown Detroit is. Beautiful architecture and greenery. Also LOVE the people mover, what fun!😁

Love Detroit I’m from Windsor across the Ambassador bridge

The D on the rise just needs a little TLC

Great shots of a great city on the rebound!

As a Detroit resident, Detroit has it’s really good and it’s really bad. Yes, Downtown is beautiful even though I miss the old Greektown which as known as trappers alley. City services are terrible, you always have to watch your back in Detroit, I’ve never been robbed but known many that have and you can get robbed anywhere in the city if a thief wants to get you they will, Car insurance is a MF in Detroit, We got food that slaps on both West or East. The Eastside is more cut throat, and the Westside tries to be more slick.

Detroit is beautiful it just got a bad repute

My dream is to start an electric car company in Detroit that makes affordable electric cars.

I've been back in Detroit for a year after 21 years of being away and it is culture shock to me there are so many people and it is always so busy

Looks great. They don't tell you the part about getting murdered. Lived in Detroit 20 years.

I see alot of changes made to the downtown area. Looks nice! I enjoyed the few times I visited. Alot of culture and history. 👍🏾

I knew the gentrification was coming when I saw Starbucks on the corner of Mack and Woodward. I told my kids friends to get ready for it by getting all the training and education they could because soon they wouldn't be able to to buy a damn thing down town. And it's sloooowly creeping into the neighborhoods. They can have it. I'm retiring and moving to Nevada. I can't take the cold anymore.

Love Detroit from India ❤🇮🇳😊

I LOVED TIGER STADIUM ON TRUMBELL!!

Make Detroit Great again 👍

0:02 I thought you were about to use Kara's theme from Detroit: Become Human. It would definitely have been cool if you had

I was so disappointed when the Autoshow was cancelled. I have to go every year for work and this is the first one being held in JUNE vs January, which i always dreaded. I even had a room booked at Foundation Hotel.... ah well life goes on.

Beautiful shots of the rent cent building on the big d river. thanks ..

I AM from Brazil and i Will visit Detroit soon! I have visited Rio before and i survived LOL!

I have to go in a few weeks for work (autoshow), they have a cool new hotel across from Cobo -- Foundation Hotel. They cleared most of the abandoned buildings along Jefferson and Mack, it's a little strange to see these big blocks of grass in the center of town. Then you cross one street, I forget the name of it, and suddenly you're in Grosse Pointe which is basically the Greenwich CT of the region. So strange. Blink and everything changes. V posh! They seem to be developing the river front area, which is an intelligent move. They need more police, like in NY in the boroughs. Flood the place with cops & SWAT and you'll gradually see improvement.

Also I wish that the train fare from Detroit (0.75) is in NYC Subways as well which is good while us New Yorkers the fare sucks alot by 300% tho (3.00).

that video was shot with love!
