Scotters Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 That was an eye opening roller coaster of a watch…some of those images of how the buildings and hoods are now, so sad to see and looked a lot like the upside down on Stranger Things!

Kathryn Magson Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I'd recorded it & watched it last night - I knew that Detroit was very run-down & deprived, but even then I was shocked to see just how bad it all was. Spread over such a vast area - abandoned homes & factories made it all look like some post-apocalyptic film set! I feel so sorry for the people who have no option other than to carry on living there, but also full of admiration for those who are working so hard to improve the area. Hats off to you all! Just by coincidence I have a few friends over in Detroit at the mo - looking forward to hearing all their stories when they're back here in the UK. 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Wilxy Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 (edited) Having visited Detroit, several years ago, I was saddened to witness it, "in the flesh so to speak",but had to watch it the other night regardless! There are quite a few more beautiful buildings in total disrepair that weren't televised, however the grassroots positivity certainly does add hope for the future of a once thriving and vibrant city.......

Popular Post Marc Silverside Posted November 12, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 12, 2022 Thanks for posting.. lucky to have been in Detroit for the Go Go - amazing place to visit.. so much history, good and bad - and so much that had a global impact. It’s true that there’s a lot of dereliction spread across the city, although plenty of positives too. Detroiters are keen to make the most of their city and wanted us to appreciate everything it has to offer. Apart from Motown and the music there’s plenty more - from art, architecture and sport to history and a amazing nightlife. Loved being there.
