There is a lot now. Sports, Casinos, waterfront, concerts, festivals and a fair bit more. The Cobo Center alone brings in almost 2 million people a year. Most of what you probably think of as old Detroit waterfront is bulldozed and parkland now. Downtown is more like Vegas than Detroit. There are still neighborhoods you just don't wander into though but even some of the fully deserted ones are a form of tourist attraction all on their own. It is a revitalization success story that can be hard to believe if you haven't seen the changes in the last 10 years.
