Ruins of Detroit

Interesting, since I haven't been to Detroit in a loooong time. But damn sad at the same time.

*edit- threw a few pics up

The theater looks like a cave with all the intricate designs on the ceilings and upper walls. They remind me of stalactites.

Du, du, du, du, du, du, du, du, du, du, du, du,
When I see you Red Wings,
I go out of my head,
I just can't get enough,
I just can't get enough,
All the things you do to me and all the things you said,
I just can't get enough.
I just can't get enough
We slip and slide and we fall in love and I just can't seem to get enough of...
Du, du, du, du, du, du, du, du, du, du, du, du

Stunning pictures. Makes you think how beautiful some of those buildings would've been back in the day. A shame it could come to that and hopefully some could be restored although judging by the damage, highly unlikely.
