This photo set has been kicking around for ... what... 3? 4? years?

Doh! I just assumed that because it was published in 2011 in a newspaper it was from 2011.

There is a recent post on a favorite blog of mine that talks about where those photos come from. They use a term that I have fallen in love with: RUIN PORN.
This is where I saw it: http://coilhouse.n...1/detroit-thrives/

I saw that article on a filthbook link, and was just wondering if the places featured are still there, or whether they've been renovated/demolished as part of the 'Detroit revival' listed on the coilhouse link. I'm guessing if it's 3-4 years it won't be the case.

Cheers

It really saddens me to see the destruction that has ocurred since those photos. I have been in many of those places and ..well they look a lot different now. Time and scrappers take their toll.
