The Onion once again proves itself to be "America's Finest News Source".

I walk down Michigan Avenue on most nights, sometimes during the wee hours. Ain't no thang.

I would like to see the removal of I-375 and the capping of I-75 South between John R and Grand River. Some sort of promenade park built over that portion of the freeway is an interesting pipe dream.

Go see the Detroit Party Marching Band at the Trumbullplex [[East side of Trumbull between Canfield and Calumet).

Lt. Dan, I can appreciate your cynicism.

Usually, when someone self-indulgently paints an abandoned building, their work is derided as graffiti. I guess if you are from New York or San Francisco...
