The Cass Corridor, in Detroit, Michigan, contains the Cass Park Historic District and the Cass-Davenport Historic District. The corridor's main street is Cass Avenue, which runs parallel with M-1 (Woodward Avenue), a main Detroit artery running north towards suburban neighborhoods. Though Cass runs from Congress Street, ending a few miles farther north at West Grand Boulevard, the Cass Corridor generally is defined as between Interstate 75 (I-75) at its southern end and Wayne State University to the north, and stretches from Woodward to the east and to the west: John C. Lodge (M-10 service drive) north of Temple, and Grand River Avenue south of Temple. Significant landmarks include the Detroit Masonic Temple (the world's largest building of its kind),〔(Masonic Temple Of Detroit- History )〕 Cass Technical High School, and the Metropolitan Center for High Technology are all located along Cass. Culturally, the Cass Corridor is a significant district. ''Creem'', which billed itself as "America's Only Rock 'n' Roll Magazine," had its headquarters in the area. The student population contributes to the bohemian atmosphere in Cass Corridor. The artistic community has produced a number of significant artists, including The White Stripes, who played their first show at the Gold Dollar. Cass Corridor is also the location of the annual Dally in the Alley arts festival.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Dally in the Alley Website )〕 Since the 2000s, Joel Landy, president of the Cass Avenue Development construction company, has renovated and remodelled several buildings in the Cass Corridor.〔(This old house savior ), Adam Stanfel, ''Metro Times'', 5 June 2002 (retrieved 12 February 2012)〕 Landy was also featured in the television series ''American Pickers''〔(Cass Ave.'s Joel Landy picked for "American Pickers" ), Nancy Kaffer, ''Crain's Detroit Business'', 5 April 2011 (retrieved 12 February 2012)〕 (season 3 episode "Motor City", 19 September 2011).
