I grew up in Detroit from 1955 to 1968 on Beechton by Warren and Livernois. It wasn't perfect but it was nice. 95% of the homes were taken care of, everyone knew each other, we walked to the library, there were bakeries everywhere, candy stores and bars on every other corner. We took advantage of all that Detroit offered, Eastern Market, DIA, Tiger Games, layfette Coney Island, Movie theaters, Hudson and the Thanksgiving parade.Growing up there made me tough though because of racial tension. I learned how to fight and how to run really fast. A year after the riots we moved to the suburbs.

When all the manufacturing in Detroit shut down, many lost their jobs from the owners, CEO's, upper management, to hourly employees. They were all effected in way or another. The same thing happened to parts of Toledo, Ohio. This is what happened as a result of so many jobs being shipped overseas and replaced with cheap Chinese imports. NAFTA and SAFTA were giant job sucking, and lopsided trade deals. We went from an export country to an import country.

A lot of dilapidated homes were torn down because the asbestos paint. Can't get a radar through it. It cost 6k to deal with the paint so they were just "burnt down" instead to save Detroit more money for the mayors pockets. When the rest are gone theyll "develope" apartments and such. Most of those poor old homes' last stories are likely the most horrific Im sure.

Don't get it twisted Detroit has a lot of good history especially black history. From Music to the church, entrepreneurship are own style, from the making of Cadillac's, ford, General motors. Many people became wealthy through the automotive industry. There were prominent neighborhoods like Rosedale Park, beautiful houses on Oakman and Chicago Blvd, West and East Grand Blvd, neighborhoods were kept up. Detroit Highschool scene set the stage for for many athletic talents. From Motown to the church. Great musicians came out of the Detroit Churches .

A few months later the house had been half burned. When the houses set empty many detroiters went in and stripped plumbing, wiring, furnaces, hot water tanks. Destroyed these homes, then many used it to dump garbage from tires to furniture. But the way people abandon animals tied up to starve freeze and die outside is beyond cruel. I would like to tie up and leave these people to freeze, starve and die. There is a couple of areas I call the twilight zone.

@The Paradox Destroyer "the reason the city is on the rebound" I've been to Detroit and i've made personal studies of the Deindustrialization and fallout of the area. Not to mention the extensive demolitions that have been made. That being said, nothing about Detroit indicates rebound if you look at the history of the city and region. Stabilization perhaps would be a better description. Still, any progress is better than none.

[@sairamsriram]

Demolish each of these abandoned buildings and let nature do its thing.

[@rachel5399]

Demolition costs money. Officials pocket whatever they can, and then some.

[@sairamsriram]

@The Paradox Destroyer - you the Mayor's kid or something?

[@detroitr]

A new video yay!

[@jackmagee1450]

good stuff as always love u brother keep them coming

[@richardpoulsonsr9206]

I just wanna know why are there so many abandoned houses.

[@theresaross7185]

So sad to see all these once wonderful homes become burnt out drug infested nightmares! I got out of Redford two years ago. Much safer.

[@squiggymcsquig6170]

When I see the thumbnails to these videos I know it's Detroit without even reading the title.

[@tonirad9577]

If they are beyond repair I guess they should be taken down . I see at best community gardens if it is state land , at worst nature actually taking back some of the land . I was born in Detroit and it is sad to see this , but I would love to see some marijuana money going to some cleanup !

[@BotanicalsByBritt]

To bad that they can’t rebuild and fix them and give an opportunity to families to have a home to live in and try to make it in life. In hope of dreaming of a owning a home.

[@justjokinntokin5474]

Can't even think of the killings/rapes that taken place in those empty houses

[@SomersetVet]

What a weird comment. Why would that be what comes to mind?

[@dmax5678]

@@SomersetVet It's not a weird comment. It's a major issue in a lot of cities with abandoned homes. The comment is the same thing as saying people may die if they live next to a volcano etc. It's a hazard in the area.

[@SomersetVet]

@@dmax5678 no it’s not lol people get raped in every city nice or ghetto. Volcanoes are a horrible comparison. I don’t look at abandoned houses and the first thing coming to my mind is “omg I wonder if ppl are getting raped and killed in there” 🤣

[@TheBigdog868]

What he's trying to say is drugs and poverty make some heartbreaking stuff happen up in there

[@jamesswetland5019]

You know you can live in a crappy neighborhood but -_ you can keep it picked up & clean. It’s called laziness.

[@jpjpjp453]

@CRAM MARC Jackpot. You could spend a whole weekend cleaning and it'll be ruined by a single truck.

[@rachel5399]

Yeah, let's just go pick up all of the trash and weed every abandoned house left by the recession after working every fucking day just to get by, while attending school that you can't afford even after assistance and scholarships, while trying to get out. Companies and factories are the heart of this city and have been for a long time. You really expect cleanliness? You can't expect everyone to care when our officials don't even care, no matter what party they are.

[@markr8796]

Seeing occupied houses in the midst of this is mind-boggling.

[@feliciawatson3356]

Why didn't you show the good parts

[@chesteradams2122]

These areas are potential for growth and restoration

[@carolb9234]

It will be one day. All those vacant areas between the abandoned houses were houses that were torn down. It takes a lot of work just to prepare to demolish a house. There are gas lines and water lines that need to be looked into on each house before tearing down. I live in a suburb of Detroit and Mayor Dugan has done a great job in Detroit. Those areas you are showing will one day be neighborhoods again.

Boston Blvd, Outer Drive, Chene, RoseDale Park, Palmer Park,

It's amazing what the auto industry can do. SAD Good thing you shot this video before the storm hit today
