Wow! So many gorgeous houses were knocked down all over Brush Park, but here is an example of what one can pull out of one of these timeless beauties despite decades of neglect and worse.

These two old relics in the Brush Park neighborhood of Detroit are on the list for renovation, so should continue to head in the direction of salvation. New roofs have been in place for several years, and the boarded up windows should keep the elements out.

Up until 2004, these buildings were collapsing and had burned. Their situation has since stabilized with significant investment, but are still unused.

This old house is in the Brush Park section of Detroit. This neighborhood of the city was once the home to the Detroit elite.

It was raining when I took this shot of a house on Winder Street. I think there had been a fire in it but there it stood like so many others, not really salvagable but not torn down. Now it's gone.
