MAPDETROIT.COM AND PARENT FIRM NAVICITI ANNOUNCE LAUNCH OF DETROIT MIDTOWN MAP

DETROIT – MapDetroit and its parent company, Naviciti, have announced the launch of a new interactive map of the Detroit’s Midtown area, encompassing the heart of the city’s cultural center.

Visible at www.mapdetroit.com, the Midtown map enables visitors to a host of educational, medical, and cultural institutions to quickly and easily access up-to-date location and event information for a variety of area destinations. Wayne State University, the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Charles Wright Museum of African-American History, Cass Technical High School, the College for Creative Studies, and the Detroit Medical Center complex are among the noteworthy institutions within the map’s coverage area, as well as a plethora of dining, entertainment, and nightlife destinations along the Woodward corridor.

Beyond providing ready access to directional information, the system’s “Event” functionality enables users to quickly get information on performances, exhibits, and other special time-sensitive events of interest through an easy-to-use searchable interface.

“The Midtown map launch marks the most significant expansion of the MapDetroit system to date,” says company spokesman David B. Livingstone. “The Midtown area is where thousands of city visitors and residents go daily for a wide range of needs, from medical treatment to films at the Detroit Film Theater. We’re pleased to be able to offer the public a comprehensive guide to one of the city’s most dynamic and vibrant centers of activity.”

The Midtown map supplements MapDetroit’s existing coverage of the downtown/riverfront area and Belle Isle Park. “We want to provide Detroiters and city visitors with the most comprehensive, engaging, and accurate guide possible to what there is to see and do here,” Livingstone explains. “We have many more coverage areas and service expansions planned for the near future, but since so many people head to this area daily for so many reasons, completion of Midtown marks a significant milestone in this effort.”
