Your photographs tell the story - graphically and completely. I have a power point showing Hiroshima, Japan in 1945 after we dropped a nuclear bomb on it. I then show photos of Hiroshima today - a beautiful city! Detroit has gone the other way. It is time to fix it and it can be fixed! 1. You need a charter change to allow mayoral candidates to be selected from anywhere in the county - not just the city. 2. Elected officials cannot save cities. You need the CEO's of the largest corporations in the region to form a leadership team. Then fund a private economic development entity led by a sophisticated developer. Then build all types of housing on your rivers and lakes and continue to demolish derelict buildings of all sorts - anotherwords "suburbanize" Detroit, creating open spaces and FREE PARKING! 3CDC in Cincinnati is the perfect model. You can do it!

An amazing gallery filled with images that tear at my heart. I went to grade school and high school in Detroit. I moved from there to Arizona after I married and had two young children. I have always wondered what it looks like now, after so long. Again, an intense and excellent photo documentary on a once bold and dynamic city. Gallery Vote.

Your documentary style is one of the best I've seen in a very long time! This tale of blight and sadness has been superbly captured!! (Voted)

It's really sad what has happened to the city that at one time had the highest average per capita income in the United States. I lived un Ann Arbor and Wyandotte from 1965-1974. I spent a lot of time in what used to be a beautiful and dynamic city. It's a damned shame!

Excellant gallery...I'm from Flint so we have some of the same urban landscape!

Excellent gallery! I grew up in the area, left almost 20 years ago; it's even worse now than it was then. You photos tell the tale of a sad, angry city that, despite the gleam of its riverside skyline, has fallen so far into decay and ruin that it may never recover, regardless of any future attempts at revitalization. What a shame.

This is insanely good! Artistic photo journalism that really tells the story of Detroit's unfortunate decline in a poignant, artistic and most of all sensitive way. Congratulations on a brilliant accomplishment! ~BV~

I have recently seen a documentary on Detroit and was considering traveling there to photograph the city in decay. You have saved me the trip. This a terrific documentary gallery. It is stark and haunting as I image the first person observations were. It is well seen and captured. ~V~

Dramatic, depressing. (I was born in Detroit 60 years ago). Wonderful images, great compositions. VOTE!

Splendid gallery. The snow adds an extra elegance to the derelict places. I have "walked" these streets several times, via 'google maps street view'. It is sad, but fascinating.

The view from afar (first image) is happier than within. Good documentary.
