Don't forget the Motor City

Maybe not so much. Used to live nearby in the late 80's. Just saw an episode of Jay Leno's car series shot in Detroit, and was absolutely stunned by how much of the city has reverted back to green space.

Soon there will be no one left to shoot.

I can’t resist telling one of my favorite stories:

Brooks Patterson, CEO of Oakland County north of Detroit, tells that one day he had to drive into Detroit for a meeting. He couldn’t get a close parking space, so he parked some distance away. He asked the attendant how long it would take to walk to the meeting place.

“Don’t know; no one’s ever made it.”
