It's great that New Yorkers think the D is cool...

...but New Yorkers have NOTHING on Londoners. I was receiving love from the UK in the late 90s/early 00s, long before Detroit had a prayer of coming back. [[The British press is another matter altogether... but then again, their press doesn't like anyone or anything!)

I did laugh at the "Midwestern TriBeCa" caption on the NYT pic. You'd have to have widespread natural disasters in huge parts of the country for Detroit real estate to ever be worth that much.
