I am active at engine 34, Livernois & W. Warren. I have noticed more and more vacant"s everywhere. Not even boarded up, just vacant & wide open.

bpaq...Generally, I take pride in being a smart ass prick, but I just seen some of your work on your website. Beautiful, not the usual tired shit as Detroit depicted as post industrial wasteland. Your incorporation of nudes in your shots puts you in a different frame of light. Good luck on your visit to Detroit .

There is a artist type of community springing up in the third world slum, in which I reside, just North of Hamtramck on the corner of Klinger and Lawley Street. Many of the artists were featured in international media stories. Maybe this will be of help to you.

To hell with urban tagged scrawl...give me a comely "nudie cutie" anyday. Again, I am impressed with your work. I originally thought you were some suburban "urban crawler" attempting some glorified high school art project. You have made an impression. Thank You.
