    OK, does anyone have any private home photos or anything of it? Grams or Gramps maybe taking pictures? I'll pay to use them.

    Buildings of Detroit... what can I say that hasn't been said? Thanks!

    I'd lament to how half a century ago they had no idea what they were destroying and how it could never be replaced, but the lessons have yet to be learned.
