Thank you very much for this post! It’s the best of Detroit’s ruins that I’ve seen. Truly fascinating.

Truly frightening.

Democrats did this.

Liberalism in a nutshell.

[centurion316]

A real piece of art, a monument to Liberalism, Unions, and the Democrat Party. Coming soon to a neighborhood near you.

Wow! Really sad to see some nice Victorian era buildings turn into ruins. People would pay big money to live in houses like that in other still functioning cities.

Some of the furniture indicates a not too distant abandonment

[behzinlea]

A bleak, horrendous testament to the destructive, corrosive power of the UAW and Johnson’s “Great Society” programs of wealth redistribution and social engineering.

Heartbreaking. I was born here. My mother used to say once upon a time Detroit was the most beautiful city in the country. Looking at the her old photographs and the architecture in these photos, I believe her.

What was done is nothing short of a crime.

[GladesGuru]

Evocative and provocative images.

Detroiter here. Looks like they got it about right. Some good news: the Fort Shelby has been renovated and apparently is very nice. Baltimore Colts used to stay there back in the day (50 years ago).

No wonder the Lions suck every year.

When I was small I used to think I lived in one of the greatest States in the Union.

I now shed a tear for what the leftists have done to my Michigan.

I will have to stay here in Virginia since there is nothing more to go home to.

One of the photos is of the William Livingston house.

Here's a video of the house coming apart:

LA isn’t too far behind Detroit.

The testament to failed liberalism and a look into the future of America under this bone headed a$$-hole in the Whitehouse!!

My father taught at Wilber Wright High School. He started teaching there when it was brand new and taught there for 40 years until the conditions in the school made him decide to retire from the DPS. By the time he did, it was pretty rough.

I was born in Dearborn. My father dragged us down to Florida in 1963, when I was 10 years old.

I agree that what has been done to Detroit is a crime. Looking at the abandoned/rotting buildings makes me want to weep.
