On Detroit Yes!

[terryh]

I thought it may be interesting to find out why we post on this site, and how we discovered Detroit Yes. Obviously many of us share a common fascination/appreciation and or disdain of Detroit and its history-architecture, myself being intrigued by the enormity of the now rebounding city,and its ethnic history. I was doing a search of historical buildings in Detroit and this site sort of jumped out at me.

I think I would be correct in writing the majority of Dyes posters are either former-current residents of Detroit, or have an 'ancestral' connection-in my case my granparents having migrated to Detroit during the roaring-booming twentaies. Its interesting to read eyewitness accounts of riots, strikes and other incidents of social unrest. Ive found that perceptions and opinions of Detroit either are extremely critical and negative or hyper-sensitive-politically correct , my own critique fluctates between positve and pessimistic, depending on my mood or life experiences...anyways...

Say yes to DetroitYES and thanks again Lowell for the Synagogue and apartment ruins tours which were my introduction to this wonderful site!
