In 1959 Berry Gordy opened Hitsville U.S.A., the first headquarters of Motown Records in Detroit, Michigan. The garage
was converted into the famous Studio A, which operated 22 hours a day and produced 110 Top 10 US hits between 1961 and 1972,
when Gordy moved Motown to Los Angeles. Hitsville U.S.A. still remains one of Detroit's most popular tourist attractions.
