The biggest problem is that everyone left Detroit, moved out to the suburbs and left the city. It will be back I think, hopefully in my lifetime.
I believe you are right, it is very sad about what has happened but unfortunately the one constant in life and time is change and that is what we are witnessing.

Many thanks to all for your input, here and on The Old Motor.
