    There was such a ground swell following the council's vote to demolish the depot. Facebook groups calling to "Save Detroit's Michigan Central Station" sprang up.

    And, members of Preservation Wayne, the Greater Detroit Historic Preservation Coalition and the Detroit Historic District Commission showed their support for restoring the station by taking a group photo there this summer. They were inspired by the National Trust for Historic Preservation's "This Place Matters" initiative."

    What, pray tell, do you mean by "no comment necessary"?

    In two cities, meaningful activism has worked. In the other city, meaningless gestures have not worked. I thought that would have been obvious.
