it's also such a trip to see so many blgs and smokestacks with actual smoke coming out of them, and NO vacant lots. it's eerie to see just how far Detroit has sunk into decay in the past 40yrs. the city in this film is a vibrant city, a REAL city. not the ghost town that is here today.
That caught my eye too. Those streets were lined with businesses with well kept signs in the video. That relative prosperity is difficult to even remember. It all went up in smoke. I wonder what kids in and around Detroit would think to see Detroit that vibrant such a short time ago.
