Hollywood Central?

Would you believe that Detroit is an up and coming destination for - Movie Production? That's right. The Detroit News on February 24th talked about how Big "D" is now ahead of cities such as Miami, Seattle, Philadelphia, Denver and San Diego to name a few. Last year Austin, Texas sat on the top of the list at #1 but fell to #10 which is only one spot ahead of Detroit at #11.

Of course, this sudden interest in Hollywood coming to the Motor City to a large degree is because of our state's recent "activism" in trying to attract them by tax incentives. The Detroit News article by Susan Whitall says it best that Michigan "...recently announced the nation's most aggressive incentive plan".
