Walking Detroit's Mostly Empty RenCen as a $1.6B Redevelopment Looms

Описание: In this walking tour, Eddy explores the GM Renaissance Center at a pivotal moment in its history. Once the global headquarters of General Motors and a symbol of Detroit’s corporate power, the RenCen now sits largely empty as it prepares for a massive $1.6 billion redevelopment.

As Eddy moves through the vast interior spaces, skywalks, and riverfront corridors, the absence of workers, businesses, and daily activity paints a striking picture of a landmark caught between past and future. With most retail closed and foot traffic nearly nonexistent, the RenCen feels more like a relic than a hub—raising important questions about office-to-residential conversions, megastructure redevelopment, and the future of Detroit’s riverfront.

This video captures a rare, in-between moment: a world-class icon standing still before its next chapter begins.
