Top 10 Abandoned Places of Detroit, Michigan

Detroit is home to many famous abandoned buildings, from schools and automotive factories to a theater and naval armory, that reflect its rise and decline. With a population that peaked at 1.8 million in the 1950s before plunging to 600,000 today, largely due to the loss of automotive jobs, Detroit has numerous empty structures being gradually reclaimed by nature.
Here's a peak at some of my favorite that remain in no particular order.
1 Packard Plant
2 Lee Plaza Hotel
3 Detroit Naval Armory
4 Cooley High School
5 Wayne County Courthouse
6 St. Paul of the Cross
7 Fisher Body Plant 21
8 National Theatre
9 Jackson Middle School
#10 St. Stanislaus

Best video on the internet, by far!!!!!!!!!!! Depressing to lose all of that awesome architecture, to never be replicated.

[@too2great8]

The architecture and craftsmanship of these buildings is so remarkable to me. It woukd be a travesty to tear down any of these buildings and not repurpose them.

[@lizzyschmidt8429]

At once tragic and fascinating. You did such a wonderful job filming. 👏 👏

Cool ...I have actually explored abandoned spots in Detroit awhile back! coming back later this year to do some more vlogs!

[@artofexp]

You should!

[@kimberlycotton]

I grew up in that area

[@adrianmolm715]

I want to buy all of these!

[@artofexp]

Packard Plant was purchased by Detroit and being demolished now. Fisher Body is currently being developed into commercial and residential space. The Lee Plaza Hotel received State funds for renovation and also recently started work. Detroit had been stepping up its game in restoring these gems for better use.

When rioting makes everyone leave. Almost everyone.

[@artofexp]

There's some great videos on RUclips of Detroit during the race riots. It's amazing to see how all these empty blocks were filled with businesses and homes at one point.

[@user-cw7kq1ry4q]

This old houses

[@user-cw7kq1ry4q]

I know a hick town that has Three court house's

[@davids9520]

.The Packard plant isn't abandoned any more. Cooley High School. I graduated from the high school. Fisher Body is also being demolished and rehabbed, like the Packard plant. Demolishing churches is not a good way to be on the good side of God.
