Help save Detroit? Every person with any sense has left. Only 25% of HS kids even graduate. 7 in 10 murders go unsolved. Packs of wild dogs run the streets. The thousands of abandoned buildings are in such a state of decay as to be unsalvagable. They must be tore down. Who would move INTO this wasteland and why? The local population is mostly illiterate. So you have to tear down buildings to build new ones, hire security like in Iraq, and entice workers from afar.

Amazing building. I would love to go take pictures while its still run down- not inside or anything just around it. Fascinated by it all the way in Dayton Ohio.

Poor quality video to say the least.

It´s like Somalia or Congo.

@jmallton Of course those with money congregate nearby one another. Who in their right mind would live in the run-down areas?

@jmallton But sadly enough the bad side of town is pretty large, Highland park, the area round central station. If you drive down Woodward ave and pas 7 mile road, just take any left or right and tour around. It should not be tolerated by the citizens of the city. I left Detroit 5 years ago, maybe it has changed but when I speak to people I know who live in Troy and Ann Arbor ... There is a lot to do for Detroit...

@amisven They use these pictures to make you think things are horrible and on the verge of chaos....it is just the bad side of town

@jmallton I agree that you can take pictures of burned down houses in most large cities, but not to this extend... Don't get me wrong, I don't like to see this, but I'm afraid that a lot of these buildings (and some are really great buildings, heritage somewhat maybe) are lost forever. And yes there are still good houses and area's in Detroit. True that that is not said enough.

@amisven You can take these type of pictures in any large city.....I have family who still live in Detroit and they live in very nice homes.....these pictures try to make you think Detroit is like this all over...it is not
The goal is turn Americans into people as poor as the average Chinese guy.

You are right about that. Once these "Free trade "Deals equalize our economies, we'll all be living in "paradise" of grass huts.
