Detroit, Michigan recent comments:

Sure used to smell good around here

George C Scott went here for a few semesters.

Wow, did there really use to be a street circuit back then?

Well, it sure warms my heart to finally see a piece of Detroit's history returning to its appearance. Did you know that they're renovating the Fort Shelby Hotel nearby, too?

Also the site of former WWII factory workers housing project. The U-shaped lines in grass are the old streets within the project.

I was 8 years old and remember the sounds of the jet coming in and the noise of the crash. It is still vivid in my mind.

torn down:( sad.

This school may have recieved a needed renovation, but look all around the neighborhood the school is in! What a DISGRACE!!! It looks as if it were a recreation of The Great Train Robbery, except without the train OR the horsemen, replaced by a disgraceful scene of abandoment and neglect! This supposed "neighboorhood" is NOT something an ailing city like Detroit needs to ignore.

A stinkin' parking lot! In my best opinion, this struggling city should've made the right decision to salvage another histroic landmark that was once a special gem of Detroit. Now I can clearly understand if the Tuller was beyond any chance of repair, but this is another painful reminder of the struggling city that once florished with pride. If the Tuller just held on a little longer, it might've been a good idea to convert it into apartment lofts. But still, the implosion of the Tuller Hotel makes a deeper cut into what was once Detroit's glamourous history.

Edificio de Willys Overland Motor Company Cuatro la historia original Willys por tierra Lofts el edificio fue construida en 1917 como las ventas y facilidad del servicio para el Willys Overland Motor Company. Durante Willys clásico de la década próxima los modelos fueron vendidos fuera de la primera planta y mantenidos en los 2dos, 3ro y 4tos pisos accesibles por el uso de dos elevadores de carga grandes. En el último 1940' s el edificio fue utilizado por Davidson Brothers las Goods Secas Company como almacén por un breve periodo de tiempo. Alrededor 1950 el edificio fueron comprados por las escuelas públicas de Detroit que utilizaron los tres edificios interconectados como espacio del almacén y área de tienda para sus operaciones. El edificio había sido vacante por cerca de dos años hasta que fuera comprado por el equipo del Midtown/de DeMattia para su redevlopment emocionante como los desvanes de Willys por tierra.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this is a former McLouth Steel plant.

The implosion and rubble of the former J.L. Hudson's department store can only serve as a painful reminder to everyone of Detroit's struggling economic standards. While the retail home mortgage company Quicken Loans has plans for the redevelopment of the property to become their new headquarters, it just can't cover up the scaving mark of what was once Detroit's historical past.

It's very sad to see such a historical landmark dissappear into the air, but BRACE UP, everyone! A local organization is planning to save a fourth of Tiger Stadium! But they must come up with the funds by August 1st, 2008, or that part of the old, famed stadium is gone for good, as will be the rest of the stadium.

Good Bye old friend. Thanks for the memories.

This is the blue end.

I'd like to know where this is because I couldn't find it at street level.

this market actually sits on top of a cemetery.

a lot of eastern europeans used to stay in this neighborhood. Mainly Romanians and some Italians.
