How awful! The wood work inside some of those churches should be salvaged and used by someone who cares.

In all seriousness, I see a potential opportunity here: Sell off the work work, windows, doors, chandeliers, etc. Turn Detroit into a huge salvage yard.

People pay good money for the stuff - look at “This Old House”.

The city can raise money to bulldoze the blight, and, more importantly, history lives on (via the craftsmanship of handmade American fixtures, etc.)
