Michigan Central Station is OPEN

"For decades, this station was the place where you knew you'd arrived..."

Bravo Bill Ford for your leadership and vision to take the step and save Michigan Central. And to the multitude of craftspeople, trades, and companies that did the work - simply outstanding!

Thank you, Ford for preserving and restoring this landmark building. Progress is not always about demolition and new construction. Heritage and historic architecture deserve respect and care in linking the past with the future.

Wow this is beautiful! & wow look at Florella Strings!!!! The music is beautiful 🥹🥹🥹

[@reneeparker7475]

From what I can see on KZbin, the restoration has been exceptional. It's good to see Detroit coming back and preserving some of its heritage. Hats off to Bill Ford and those who did the hard work of making this possible. Bravo!!!

A magnificent restoration. The thought and design that went into this style of building took hours by dozens of Architects to achieve.

[@cprtrain]

Let this building represent the rebirth of Detroit. Thanks to everyone who contributed to the renovation.

Nice job. Looks great cheers from Montreal

[@RealWorldRyann]

WOW!! The music in this is amazing! OMG that's Florella Strings!!! 😍🤗

[@jaygatz4335]

Close to $ 1 billion to do this. It shows how far we've come down from the materials and standards from long ago. Let's hope Buffalo's station gets a good facelift.

@Michigan Central Exceptionally well done vid! For those not familiar with the restoration project, I'll share this one first. Informative range of input from Bill Ford to the craftspeople. And the musical accompaniment from Florella Strings playing De'Sean Jone's music is inspiring. Please add the appropriate copyright credit to the description.

Oh. My. GOSH! I pass by and see this place whenever I travel to Canada to visit relatives, and my Mom would always tell me how they're rebuilding this place. NOW IT'S REAL!! It's finished! And I am definitely going to go there and see it for myself the next trip to Canada.

It's sad and unfortunate that trains were not brought back into MC, but the restoration is SUPERB!!

[@peterconrad6135]

Amtrak returned to Cincinatti Union Terminal after it's restoration. It could happen in Detroit. Even Buffalo!

[@louislamonte334]

@@peterconrad6135 Let's hope!!

Where are the trains?

[@jeffdaniel9128]

What is the planned usage for this vast space? ❤

[@DetroitNinja]

Let’s do a collab.

[@jeffreyspangler9617]

Now do the Grande Ballroom!

[@nickk05281982]

Waaaaaaaaaaaay tooooo much money

[@DavidEssex-fe6mx]

Michigan Central Station is Open! It was built as a train station and there's no trains. Stupid, ain't it?

[@jeffaulik3980]

Ford, how could you take this on? Your company is losing billions. It can't even produce passenger cars anymore, and you spend money on this? Sheesh.

[@GALACTUS-WORLD-EATER]

Bravo Mr Bill Ford

[@kenlodge3399]

I'll tell ya it totally transformed my opinion of FOMOCO into an entity that can contribute something positive with integrity.

[@michaelanthonyvideos]

Beautiful!

[@RickDolishny]

I understand the concert will be streamed on KZbin. Can you please provide a link or an opportunity to get a reminder or purchase an online ticket? We're in Canada and can't watch on NBC or Peacock. Thank you!

[@athiest4you]

can't wait to see in person. . maybe be a train station again

[@jaygatz4335]

The station is a true symphony of design!

[@4knanapapa]

One more beautiful revitalization of a Detroit building proving it truly is the Paris of the midwest.

[@1aikane]

Thank you Ford for saving an important part of our nation's history.
