01 / The story of this place

Make time for these

The Detroit Cultural Center Association drives shared planning for Midtown's Cultural Center, home to the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Charles H. Wright Museum, the Detroit Historical Museum, the main library and the Michigan Science Center. The effort began with a 2018 international design competition that drew 44 teams and was won by a team led by Agence Ter. In 2024 the district's guiding plan won a Bay Urban Visioning Award, presented at the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao.
