'Investing in Detroit' topic at Wayne State University lecture

A lecture titled "Investing in Detroit," featuring Matthew P. Cullen, chief executive officer, M-1 Rail, president and CEO, Rock Ventures LLC, will be offered from noon to 1 p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 27, at Wayne State University Law School's Spencer M. Partrich Auditorium, 471 W. Palmer in Detroit.

Cullen, a leader in Detroit's ongoing revitalization, will offer his perspective on opportunities in Detroit, including an update on the M-1 Rail streetcar initiative. The 6.6-mile streetcar route will connect the city's largest cultural destinations, educational and entertainment facilities, and employment centers along Woodward Avenue. Through a public-private partnership, M-1 Rail will also serve as a catalyst for investment, economic development and urban renewal to positively impact Detroit while helping to create a modern, regional transit system. Cullen serves as volunteer president and CEO of the initiative.
