Not hard to believe when you look at the old pictures of downtown, the leafy streets, the layout of neighborhoods and the prosperous residential architecture. There was a lot to engage a tourist or a resident. I think one of the tougher things about latter day Detroit is that many buildings disappeared to make way for parking lots. But then again that has been the fate of so many other cities and towns.
