The Motown Museum, also known as Hitsville U.S.A. is a former photographers studio located at 2648 West Grand Boulevard in Detroit, Michigan. It was purchased by Motown founder Berry Gordy in 1959 and then converted into both the record labels administrative building and recording studio. Following mainstream success in the late 1960s and early 1970s, Gordy moved the label to Los Angeles and established the Hitsville West studio there, as a part of his main focus on not only music production, but also television and film production.
