That's a good question. An old friend of mine who used to work at Newsday once tried to get the paper to fund an investigation of who owned Manhattan. They almost went for it but chickened out. Basically no one really knows who owns Manhattan (and the buildings and the land are generally owned by different people). If by who owns Detroit you mean who owns the auto companies, that's pretty easy: big institutional investors. If you mean who owns the buildings and the land, that could be a big investigative project. The info is probably available, but I doubt it's in some easily analyzable form.
