Detroit’s Chinatowns tells the 150-year history of the the city's Chinese community, starting with the arrival of an immigrant named Ah-Chee in 1872. A timeline traces the community’s growth, as the city’s first Chinatown came together on 3rd Avenue, just west of downtown, and then relocated to the Cass Corridor due to 1950s urban renewal.
