Michigan Central is a hub in Detroit dedicated to advancing new technologies and programs that address barriers to greater social, economic, and physical mobility. Anchored by the iconic, reimagined Michigan Central Station, Michigan Central is both a convening place and a call-to-action - for city, regional and international inventors and investors, academics and entrepreneurs, civil society voices and government leaders, and business owners and corporate partners - to advance a more sustainable, equitable future through a community-based approach to mobility solutions. This vibrant 30-acre site nestled between the Corktown and Southwest Detroit neighborhoods will serve as a destination for Detroiters and visitors alike - inviting people to shop, dine out, attend concerts and live events, and participate in educational programming, while innovators create in purpose-built spaces with smart infrastructure and embedded technology. Building on Detroit’s rich history as an engine of change, the transformative project aims to strengthen the city’s existing fabric of community and electrify its economy, while inspiring collective action on the most pressing challenges at the intersection of mobility and society worldwide. The right mobility solutions have massive potential to change the world for the better. Creating them will take the world’s best minds, working together, at Michigan Central.
