Flint is a city of some 100,000 citizens in the state of Michigan in the north of the United States. For much of its history, it was a centre of the motor-manufacturing industry. The world headquarters of the Buick brand was in Flint. The film ‘Roger and Me’ charted the decline of the city’s motor industry. Today much of the city centre has been regenerated and visitors will find there is much to enjoy. An official self-guided walking tour of the central area is the best way to get to know the city. The route takes visitors to the city’s architectural landmarks, including its art deco skyscrapers. The Flint Cultural Centre is the location of a variety of museums and attractions. It was constructed in the city’s boom years, during the 1950s and 1960s. The Institute of Arts has an impressive permanent collection. Among the star attractions are impressionist and post-impressionist paintings and a selection of 17th century French tapestries. The Buick Gallery and Research Centre is home to dozens of classic Buicks as well as several unique General Motors concept cars. The Whiting Auditorium regularly hosts Broadway musicals. Atwood Stadium is a large stadium where sports fans can enjoy games of semi-pro American football.
