ABOUT DESTINATION: SCIENTOLOGY, DETROIT
Detroit, the car capital of the world and birthplace of Motown—the hit-making machine that produced the music that charmed across cultural and racial boundaries and uplifted a nation—is rebounding from tough times. And the Church of Scientology is located at the geographic center of the city’s resurgence, working to get residents back on the road to prosperity.
The Church of Scientology building stands on what’s known as the “Cornerstone of Detroit,” the site of the first building ever built in Detroit and the entrance of the downtown Central Business District. Restoring the building’s magnificent Greco Deco architecture to its original glory is symbolic of the city’s own resurgence. Viewers will learn the history of Detroit’s stratospheric rise from a fur-trading fort to the automobile capital of the world. They’ll also see how the Church works with the city on humanitarian objectives that are having a lasting impact on Motor City. As one Detroit native and Church staff member put it, “There is that hope, there is that dream and we’re making that happen.”
