Campus Martius is Latin for "Field of Mars." Mars was the Roman god of war, so the military training ground, both in ancient Rome and here in Detroit, was called Campus Martius. The Point of Origin for the city of Detroit is located in Campus Maritius Park. If you've ever wondered where 8 Mile Road is 8 miles from, the answer is the center of Campus Martius Park.

Detroit's Downtown
Don't Look Back Detroit, Keep on Pushing
Detroit as the Temptations hae said, we have to keep on pushing and not look back. We have to leave all our troubles behind us and look forward to a brighter future for not only the citizens of Detroit but the city of Detroit. We have to keep on walking Detroit and keep on pushing forward as we leave our past behind. Stall Tall Detroit and look for a future of Greatness as we as Detroiters strive and survive together.
Detroit is the city that we hope for better things as it arises from the ashes. That's why we must promote the great things about Detroit from its history to its culture to its famous as well as prominent leaders and figures.
I'm an individual who barely sleeps, always working, always planning, constantly analyzing places, people, and things while giving my heart and soul into everything that I do. Working diligently to make a differnce in the world one step at a time is my goal.
God has blessed me beyond my years and for that I owe everything to my Lord and Savior! This past summer has helped me change my life and the direction that I am headed. I am a server, a motivator, and a guiding force for the Lord. Therefore, I am who I am!
