Difficult to see in this image but this storefront tucked behind the State Theater [[Fillmore) on W. Elizabeth is actually attached to an old house. You can see the roof of the original house poking...

Whether you loved it or hated it the Cloverlanes Bowling Alley definitely added some visual interest to the I-96 corridor. I never bowled there myself... it's just always been one of those things...

Bob put on a hell of a show last night. High energy, the Silver Bullet Band was in top form, great set list. The band always sounds great but Bob himself sounded better than he did on the last tour....

They removed the last of our wooden mains in Ypsilanti about ten years ago during a road construction/underground infrastructure blitz. There's a section of one on display at the YCUA [[Ypsilanti...

Like when the idiot younger brother in "Gone in 60 Seconds" stole the heroin kingpin's Eldorado because it had the keys in the ignition... The question posed to him was "What kind of person do you...

This is great. I've always loved the ornate streetlights throughout the city. They make a huge difference aesthetically in my opinion. For a perfect example note the difference when you drive...

I seriously doubt that this move will help put butts in the seats for Cadillac but I hope that it does. The current crop of Cadillac products is simply outstanding. The cars are "there" in that...

Great photos! I'm being a little nitpicky here but the top photo [[BASF) is probably from a few years later than stated. The rectangular headlamps featured on the Chevrolet G-Van in the foreground...

I drove through this area on my way home from work today. The renovations are certainly not limited to Philadelphia St as several of the neighboring blocks had lots of activity as well. They appear...

What self-respecting Detroiter races a Nissan through the city streets?

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the one factor that, if removed from the equation, would have ensured that McBride and Wafer remained strangers to one another. Or, if an encounter had occurred,...

You forgot to mention shooting baskets outside the school :cool:

I must've driven by as this was all going down. I was on my way home from Belle Isle when I was passed by two DPD Dodges on Grand Blvd. They stopped in front of the Packard plant where a guy in an...

I think it's worth noting that the police are issuing approximately four warnings for every one ticket. This ratio would seem to deflate Ron Scott's argument about "the rules" not being clear or...

We had a great time on the tour this year. We didn't get to see all of the houses but for the most part the neighborhood was standing tall!

If you click on the links to the historic photos it mentions that construction wasn't completed right away when the building went up in the 1930's. Presumably this was due to the Depression. What...

There's one on West Warren for a cigar shop which I particularly like. The last time I drove by I was going to take a picture but the "commerce" taking place on the block at the time dissuaded me...

Currently listening to the "pat... pat... pat... pat..." of water dripping through my bedroom ceiling.

I have the exact same Times Square picture that they have in their billiards room on my living room wall. It's from Ikea.

Pretty much everything in Detroit is frozen right now...:D

So long 4th Street... it was fun having you around all these years. The 94 widening also will spell the end of the house my grandfather was raised in. And while that may not mean much in the grand...

I drove by it the other day and couldn't believe how monstrously ugly it is. I guess it beats the surface lot that was there but the way it dominates the block is just brutal.

My mistake... that is the place.

I noticed Friday that the White Castle at Harper and Chalmers has become some sort of BBQ joint. I've definitely devoured some "whiteys" at that location after stumbling out of Harpo's!
