if i lived there, i'd go salvage as much as i could. some of that old wood from the early 1900's is very valuable today. so much money to be made recycling all the metals and precious materials.

jajael,
detroit was at one time the center of the car industry. Beleive it or not....Americans out produced any other car company in the world. Detroit was a place that by just saying the name of the city gave you a warm fuzzy feeling inside. Then the Japanese, europeans and at last the Koreans came.....they all ate cake and then POOF michael moore starts filming police evicting people from their homes and the town fell apart. Not even their football team knows how to win. There must have been something in that cake damnit!!!

Same thing happened to Bethlehem steel and Mack trucks. Doh!

modern ruins ..... I can imagine future generations looking back at these ruins just as we look back at ancient civilizations and trying to picture how they lived. I always wondered if this would happen to our cities, I just didn't expect it so soon....
