Detroit Historical Museum
Also in the Cultural Center, the Detroit Historical Museum interprets the city's past through its "Streets of Old Detroit" display of reconstructed shops dating from the 1840s to the 1900s. The most interesting exhibit, not surprisingly, examines the automobile, with an automated display of the "body drop" process on an assembly line, in which a car's frame is lowered onto its chassis.
