I am fascinated by large abandoned buildings.

Not sure why.

Looks like some of the moveables are going to auction. Check out the link.

Did the Russians drop a neutron bomb on Detroit?

It's hard to tell.

Reading it now... lots of history.


For me this always comes to mind

A couple summers ago this thing was still open for concerts. Apparently, some dude bought it for like a qtr. mil (which was still probably a huge loss). Pulling up, it was like some post nuclear holocaust scene. Big rolls of astro-turf rolled up the parking lot and nobody around. I thought they'd blown the f#%ker up years ago.

That costs money.

They can't even keep their street lights on in Detroit.
