For at least the last decade, it has been a point of contention for longtime Detroiters that the area called “Midtown” is really more properly called the Cass Corridor. They have some points in their favor. The name “Cass Corridor” is rooted in history: The Cass Corridor takes its name from the old parcel owned by territorial governor Lewis Cass. The “Cass Corridor” has art and music movements associated with it, and local institutions used the name. The “Cass Corridor” has well-defined boundaries: It runs between Cass and Third from Michigan north to at least where the Wayne State University campus takes over.
