Detroit in web camera, had the proud name of “American Paris”. The main attractions were: Washington Boulevard, Public Library building, Art Institute and Cobo Hall exhibition center, Renaissance Center high-rise 73 floors building and Spirit of Detroit bronze composition. All of this personified the well-being, stability and luxury of the city.

After opening the famous automobile plants: Ford, General Motors, Chrysler there came many immigrants that led to the emergence of poor neighborhoods in Detroit. Crime, prostitution and drug trafficking have increased.
