Detroit Escorts: A Neighborhood That Never Gave Up

My wife and I tend a plot in a Detroit community garden in an area of the city called Midtown. Last year when we first started this venture we lived in Midtown—now we are just a 15 minute walk away in Woodbridge. Midtown these days seems like ground zero for development in the city. Several restaurants, bars and retail shops have opened here in recent years. Twenty years ago, however, it was a different story. Midtown was then referred to as the “Cass Corridor,” Cass being a main thoroughfare through the area. The Corridor was a den for crack cocaine junkies and prostitutes, and it certainly was a contributor to the negative image Detroit has carried for decades. Midtown’s transition since the late 80s has been remarkable, thanks in large part to Wayne State University and a host of creative entrepreneurs.
