The Death And Decay Of Detroit, As Seen From The Streets
With the stock market hitting record highs day after day, it is easy to move on and forget that one of American's once premier cities, Detroit, has been bankrupt for nearly a year. But out of mind doesn't mean out of sight, especially now that Google has launched its street view Time Machine, which provides for 7 years worth of street images, showing the time shift of the tumultuous period period starting in 2007. One blogger who decided to take this time lapse data and apply it to the city of Detroit is GooBing Detroit who, as the following time-lapse photos demonstrate, has captured Detoit's unprecedented slow-motion collapse into death and decay in what is the closest we have to "real time."
Perhaps what is most stunning about the following series of photos is not the ultimate fate of the bankrupt city, but how quickly a once vibrant metropolis has succumbed to blight and sheer desperation.
Hopefully not coming to a street near you.
All photos from the Goobingdetroit tumblr depict various areas and streets in Detroit, then and now.

Feel like you can kind of see how this scene unfolded:
In the top photo, the tree is blocking the view of that yellow house in the middle — that house isn’t in great shape, but it’s ok. The house to the left has neatly trimmed hedges and a chair on the porch. The house on the right has been gutted by fire.
I imagine that middle house - since it’s been demo’d by 2012 - caught on fire and caused the further damage to the house at the right. Whoever had been living in the nicely maintained house on the left, moved out, and that house was gutted.
In the last photo — with the nicely maintained house farthest to the right — you see another nice house on the left, with a boarded up, but fairly stable, house in the middle. By 2012, both nice houses are gutted, as is the boarded up one in the middle.
Springwells Village
Near City Airport. Wonder why they didn’t take down the one next door while they were at it…
From top to bottom: 2008, 2009, 2011, 2013. Hickory Street between Manning and Pinewood, northeast Detroit.
Of the 12,093 properties in this Detroit neighborhood, 1,037 are owned by the City of Detroit, mostly due to tax foreclosure. Another ~4,500 are either subject to tax foreclosure right now, or will be in the next year or two.
Eastwood between Queen and MacCray, Northwest Detroit. Just east of Osborn, in “Burbank”… if anyone actually calls it that. Of the 34 properties on this block, 24 have been tax foreclosed, 13 are at risk of foreclosure, and precisely 1 property is in good tax standing.
Corner of Thaddeus and S. Leigh Street, Southwest Detroit. That’s a lotta washing machines…
Hazelridge between Celestine and MacCray, Northeast Detroit
This block is incredible. Still pretty dense with housing, but only one of them is occupied. If you go a block to the west, the housing stock changes to brick and the neighborhood looks pretty stable.
The New York Times visited this block during the Motor City Mapping survey:
"Blight, as Karl Baker, one Detroit resident, has seen, tends to spread. Along his block of Hazelridge Street on the East Side, he is the only remaining tenant. “Everyone went bye-bye,” Mr. Baker said the other day as he walked up the center of the silent street to get to his house since no sidewalks had been shoveled.
Most of the houses nearby are standing but abandoned, and visitors have clearly passed through — empty liquor bottles lie along debris-covered floors near broken windows and doors, every memory of a metal appliance or gutter seems to be gone from some of the homes, and two old couches that were dumped along a lawn are now blanketed by a thick layer of snow.
The last neighbor left six months ago, he said, and the single streetlight overhead has not worked for months. “I love the quiet, but if something went wrong, the city isn’t going to come,” Mr. Baker said. “They don’t do anything.”

"Why is Haliburton in Dubai?"
why is Eric Prince, Mr. "Blackwater/Xe" in Dubai. . .
pure white, as the driven snow - but no one wants to acknowledge those men,
focus on the Target folks, focus now.
Oh yeah, Mississippi and Alabama are fucking Shangri-la! Does everything in your empty pathetic life revolve around red team blue team bullshit? So sad.
It's only been 50 yrs. since it was common for rural, southern Obama's to live in shacks w/o electricity or running water. Now, that Uncle Sam can't afford to support them, at the same level, it'll be commonplace again.
Baghdad?
Just for laughs, why is it that so many large cities continue to vote for Democrats then? You'd think the people would've seen this pattern by now right? There are fucked up cities that haven't had a republican mayor in over 50 years, perhaps longer.
Many variations of this saying exist: It isn't what you don't know that hurts you the most. It's what you thought you knew for sure that just isn't so.
Now, I hear a warm, soft, calming hum emanating from the TV beckoning gently and sweetly like the sirens of old called to the sailors. It is time for security of the Fux News Hypnosis Hour.
Not how none of the sniveling cowards can name one big city destroyed by Republicans.
They sure tried it on NYC on 911.
Well it's nice to see how the great policies are working of the arrogant narcissistic illegal indonesian kenyan sociopathic liar in chief and its celebrity grand imperial golf life style.....
Didnt sound like sarcasm.
Gee, more cowardly attacks in lieu of an honest answer to my challenge.
You are a sniveling coward, are you not?
Why did you edit your original reply?
Sniveling maybe. A coward, no.
And you're a douchebag and partisan hack if you think the GOP offers any hope for America these days.
The Obama/Reid/Pelosi trio offered "Hope".
They do offer hope. Like chemo to the stage 5 cancer patient. It hurts a lot, makes you feel like crap, but you will live just a 'little bit longer'...
You'll SUFFER for a bit longer and in the process enrich Big Pharma.
so what do you reckon the "other" team will offer up for their next advertising jingle?
I hope they stop lying.
I will take the bait, Bush did his part of the plan, and now Barry is executing the next phase. Divide and conquer, and if it's not obvious by now, the goal is to destroy America. The evidence is right in front of your eyes, but we all refuse to believe. I wonder why the three letters didn't need hollow points in our previous history. Makes a man wonder, but you are part of the shock troops sent here on mission by your handlers.
RevRex Gee, more cowardly attacks in lieu of an honest answer to my challenge.

challenge?
All you posted is nonsense and when responded to by facts, you have nothing but to call names.. You are a joke and I call you out. And so have the majority by the down votes you get.
Cultural Diversity.
Gawdhelpus.
LOL...
This is what the "diversity" gets us......
None, in ruins.
America, Nation of nations, look on her works ye mighty, and despair.
My favorite ironic pic of Detroit Ruins is still this one:

National Republican policies like Reaganomics gutted good paying manufacturing jobs in Detroit.
If you know your history you will see that it was Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan who promoted de-industrialization, globalization, and outsourcing which is the main reason for Detroit's decline !!!
Had the Republican joined Democrats for more protectionism for manufacturing, Detroit would not be a ruined city.
Funny, I thought this was all Bush's fault.
Might the problem not be the UAW, the thing all american car makers have in common, that Japanese and German and Korean car makers don't? It has been a fantastic graft machine for Democrats, and carries on, zombiefied, eating and ruining. Never, ever, drive a UAW car. The UAW and allied unions delivered us Obama/Reid/Pelosi, shitty yet expensive schools K-post doc, gigantic public debt, high unemployment, crap products and both physical and moral decline. Never, ever rent, lease, or buy a UAW made car.
ummm Japan and German automakers are ALL unionized. Japan and Germany also have protectionist trade policies on their Auto markets. We need to do that too.
If we did you would see Ford, GM, and Chrysler sell alot more cars.
Would it reduce the recalls?
Yes, because more of the parts would be made in-house in the US (with better quality controls) rather than outsourced to low quality Mehico.
Ever wonder why Mercedes and BMW dont have that many recalls?? Because the parts are almost all made in Germany and not outsourced.
looks like they are prepping mrs clinton for the next 4 years,,,,,,that will jam the last 35 years right up everyones azzes as a big fuck u !!!!!!! remember presidents are selected not elected
In the case of Mercedes and BMW, they wouldn't outsource even without the protectionism, for the same reason a company like Les Paul doesn't outsource: Quality crafting requires a higher level of attention to detail, something you don't get when your product is beyond physical reach.
Discussing cars in this way completely misses the point.
I today's world, cars are about producing debt. They are not there to enable or to be enjoyed.
They are a pretty efficient tax collection idea too.
I don't have one.
hahahahahahaha.... um, no...
http://www.slideshare.net/PrincePatni1/mercedes-benz-suppliers-list
German, and esp. Japanese unions are NOT like the UAW. At all. They have pride in their products and company.
The UAW workers (even to this day) refuse to take ANY responsibiity for the shit they produced from 1970s until this decade. It's always management, engineers, etc. NEVER the worker. Nope....they just turn a wrench, etc.
The UAW is just a conduit for cash to democrats.
The UAW workers pay dues so more illegals can come in and lower wages.
The UAW workers pay dues so their high-priced health insurance can be taxed, and they didn't realize it. They just voted the way they were told.
The UAW keeps bad workers on the job, drunk and/or stoned, and the company makes inferior products, and they all go bankrupt.
But they would rather have a dues paying member than a good worker and a solvent company.
They deserve what happens to them.
Since everyone else is afraid to say it. What do the decaying cities all have in common? Run by black democrats... for years... with more and more graft for the public sector and yet by pooling their population, they keep voting for their own short term gain, but long term destruction.
And of course calling anyone else a racist. Go ahead, call away but name me a single black leader who has led his people out of poverty. City, county, state, nation...
The Richard Daleys weren't black.
... and Chicago looks nothing like Detroit, funny that
You're right. Detroit can't compete with Chiraq's murder rate.
Just a question.
How many bankers are black?
It was Ross Perot's fault. He described the 'giant sucking sound' pretty well.
Reganomics, my ass.
What gutted the jobs was NAFTA, Gramm, Leach, Bliley (gutting Glass Stegal) et al, that were Show-Case Policies of Bill Clinton and the Democrats, just like ACA is the Show-Case for Obie&Cie. (Dems, again.)
Gramm, Leach, and Bliley were all Repukes.
You must admit that these photos prove that the training that the Reuther brothers received during their years in the Soviet Union sure has produced the desired results!
All of this is made possible by the feral animals that live among the civilized populations.
Yes. Every single house that had the windows busted out and spray painted and set on fire had a group of feral animals doing it.
That is the big picture; what are those feral animals going to do when they don't have food, booze, or a flop house to hang out in?
Oh that's easy! They're just starting to turn their life around, and besides, they didn't do nuffins.
When it all falls apart they will all go to college on scholarship and become engineers, astronauts and rappers.
We are bit a too busy right now having a national dialog on white privilege and reparations to even bring up a possible cultural problem in the black community of low education, illegitamacy and gov't dependence.
I'm sure more than a few of them are going to be juuuust smart enough to learn how to catch lead in exactly one lesson.
Those photos would look like paradise to the Australian Greens Party, as that's exactly what they're committed to trying to bring about here, ASAP. And yes, they are in fact feral, and have made a good start on their quest in Tasmania.
However former Greens leader Bob Brown lives a lovely rural property in Tasmania, apparently he is good for the environment so the rules and reg's are for everyone else.
They are coming for you first since I'm not an easy target. Maybe I will be next after you after my 15 thousand rounds of ammunition are used up......
Give me 12 years as a libertarian mayor and I will turn the place around. First thing will be clearing out the bankruptcy and becoming debt free.
Yes, you will just change the culture overnight while ignoring the Feds breathing down your ncek with a million mandates.. I used to think it could be fixed now I know better. Just like I used to vote Repugnut...
Hope & Change. The Google libtard and Gates/Buffet oligarchs maps show the decay from their marxist/facist oligarch NWO heroes.
What is really sad is some of those houses look like people fixed them up and had them in decent shape but the cancer never stops.
RevRex - politics is the distraction.
RevRex,
You are too obvious. Go roll up another character this one is too transparent. Troll or shill, you failed.
If you really wanted to talk to people and discuss ideas you would not be calling everyone names. You want to inflame or distract.
Which is it?
.
RevRex , if you pointing out that liberalism is more destructive than conservatism, fine -- good job observing the obvious. But if you're touting the same tired old idea of "choosing the lesser of two evils" every election, nobody is going to listen. We've heard that argument a million times before and gotten nowhere with it. List five different policy differences between George W. Bush and Barack Obama. Tip: You can't.
Where in the world is there a Republican city?
Meanwhile the 10 poorest states are republiconzi. But all states are the same... Riiiight.
Only years prior reverse the labels.
All you offer is more of the same. You can't convince me. You idiots had an entire lifetime to convince me. Epic fail.
Imagine two cities: one where everyone makes $2000 a month and a house costs $20,000; the other everyone makes $4000 a month and a house costs $500,000. Who is really poorer?
uuuumm..It's all George Bush's fault?
Well...to be fair, the Democrats aren't the only demographic that's been running Detroit for 50 years....
If ya catch my drift...
It was the Reagan administration that launched the Uruguay Round of multilateral trade negotiations in 1986 that lowered global tariffs and created the World Trade Organization. It was his administration that won approval of the U.S.-Canada Free Trade Agreement in 1988. That agreement soon expanded to include Mexico in what became the North American Free Trade Agreement, realizing a vision that Reagan first articulated in the 1980 campaign. It was Reagan who vetoed protectionist textile quota bills in 1985 and 1988.
Is This how you will save us all REV REX?
RevRex likes to put people in boxes.
It's what he grew up with:
Stubborn people like oxes.
He firmly believes in a two party system,
Through cognitive dissonance cuts right through him,
He won't see the difference between left and right,
' Cause he's been beaten down in the consummate fight,
His mental weakness been exposed in the bright light,
What he needs is to humble himself it's alright,
So that he might learn to live in the light.
(RevRex, You need salvation instead of hatred, your life is nearly wasted.)
PS- I ain't no rapper in case you dint notice.
PPS- you two party fool! Only one party that matters- the right one, not dem, not rep, the right one, I said.
wake up to reality jerkoff government is your slave master and nothing more, how pathetic to care which flavour of management is slaving you.
Keep voting for the "socialism" and the welfare state this is the result.
Why is the FORD FOUNDATION not taking over these properties, knocking them all down, and create newly built gated communities (that are safe) and urban farms????
It seems the FORD FOUNDATION is more obsessed with helping 3rd world countries, than helping their own third world Detroit !!!
Thats why I hate the FORD FOUNDATION !!!
Oh, and where are the billionaires like BILLY GATES who can spend billions on Africa, but let Detroit rot ????????
Ford Foundation? Obama's mama worked for the Ford Foundation.
Detroit was once the greatest industrial city in the world, but now it's only a prime movie location for "Zombia Apocalypse."
Coming to silicon valley within our lifetimes.
"Why is the FORD FOUNDATION not taking over these properties, knocking them all down, and create newly built gated communities (that are safe) and urban farms????

Because there's a better work ethic and fewer cultural problems in Mogadishu?
So did Geithner's father. They knew each other. The Ford Foundation is Deep State, State Dept and Al/See/Eye/Aye/Duh.
I had a prof who worked for them in the past. My guess is he had been a spook. Watch the videos on you tube by the guy who wrote Confessions of An Economic Hit Man to understand how USA Inc work.
I don't FORD FOUNDATION was really the point he was trying to make. I think he's pointing out how 'odd' it is for wealthy and powerful U.S. organizations to become obsessed with the poor in remote locations when Detroit is literally in their backyard.
Calling Detroit '3rd world' at this point is not an exaggeration. I think the OP is speculating that FF is possibly deliberate in the apparent ignorance of Detroit in favor of more remote places.
Divide and conquer -- FTW.
Freddie: +1
Meant to say the same thing, but you said it better clearly.
Ford Foundation hires Barack's mom and Timothy Geithner's dad. They work together under the CIA / NGO umbrella, using the effective playboook Freddie mentioned: "Confessions of An Economic Hitman." Later Barry and Timmy get appointed to high office and work together. In sum?
“In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way.” - FDRWithout these foundations (Ford, Gates) organizing local vaccination drives, how would the CIA be able to gather enough DNA to postively identify their most wanted turrists? That's why these organizations aren't focused on Detroit.
They are all globalists, not americans. In their view, americans need to be punished and brought down to the same level as everyone else in the world. Their beef with us and most of the west is that our life expectancy is too long.
Best post today.
when humans stop identifying with their named-tags, based on imaginary land-mass boundaries used to grow them up, tax them, impose licensing/permits/etc. on all the earnings, encouraging consumer-ism and patriot-ism, flag-waving cheerleaders for the system that pens them in
then the fiction is seen through, and the human can act accordingly.
those who write the scripts and profit handsomely are not bound by the fictive nation-all labels.
That and we tend to be unruly serfs, they prefer the ignorant and sedated so we are almost there..
Incorrect; it is not about punishment but about control.
A middle class class has the wealth and leisure to feed and arm itself and thus is more unruly that a peasant with a 5th grade education living hand to mouth.
The American middle class therefore must be systematically destroyed, defanged, and made dependent.
That control and undermining of the middle class also reinforces the elite's superiority complexes.
You can't have clearly defined elites unless you have clearly defined riffraff.
Are Americans more valuable than everyone else????
No, they only THINK they are.
The true struggle is that between decent human beings and greedy psychopaths - so far, the latter are winning.
I hope I live long enough to see the turn of the tide.
Agree, what the US needs now is an injection of diversity. 30 million semi-literates from Central America should do just the trick, in terms of boosting crime, poverty, and public spending.
They don't help Detroit because no one gives a crap about Detroit's home made self destruction. We've all given to Detroit, massively, for decades on end. Fuck'em. Africa on the other hand, is full of people who are considered by so many to be Designated Victims, irresponsible of their plight, which you and I may be a little guilty of. So they do these splashes of helping Africa to improve their public and self images.
You give no credit to DENIAL?
Resources...
Just stating the obvious...
"Why is the FORD FOUNDATION not taking over these properties...?"
That's not the Ford Foundation's job. They are very open and crystal clear about their mission, which is reprogramming american culture with "progressive" socialist values.
It's completely out in the open, it's funny how people can get confused about it. Look at their homepage, they practically scream it from the rooftops. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
http://www.fordfoundation.org/
"Working with Visionaries on the Frontlines of Social Change Worldwide"
and to play the "opposite" card,
the American Enterprise Institute, that "conservative pro business right-wing think tank"
left ass cheek, right ass cheek, both surround the same old shit.
"Why is the FORD FOUNDATION not taking over these properties, knocking them all down, and create newly built gated communities (that are safe) and urban farms????"
Can you imagine the property taxes on a gated community in Detroit? Probably $5000 / year minimum per unit. Urban Farm? I would be quite surprised if city bylaws allowed that to happen.
If >6000 homes are foreclosed or in process of being foreclosed due to property taxes, it should be fairly obvious the tax burden is too high to bear. No charitible organization can overcome infinite demand for tax revenue.
I find it sad that on the third set of photos (Northwest, near Grand River) the after shot,there is an american flag on the front lawn.
Are you a sucker for symbolism or disappointed that the flag didn't burn up with the houses?
Its a cancer that is spreading throughout America
Yep. And that cancer is corruption at the National, State, and local levels.
We are N's and this is what we do.
N stands for napalm. Now you know my plan.
Here is, in my opinion, the unvarnished truth:
Segregation was socially and morally untenable;
but desegregation has been an utterly spectacular failure;
The only solution is to end any and all positive discrimination measures; gently end baby-mamas welfare, obamaphones, section 8 housing and all such....And let the chips fall where they may.
A well functioning society should care for its indigents, not create them generation after generation....
I'm giving you a red one for that. Segregation was the best short term solution to delay the long term social destruction inevitable when the races co-mingle their cultural standards. South Africans knew it too.
And worse, and faster, co-mingle DNA.
Yep. They still have to live somewhere, after burning down their city since 1967.
Which one is Eminem's house? 8 Mile? Kinda shacky for ONE MILLION $$$$
Eminem's Detroit childhood home is up for saleIt's listed for one dollar. Not one million.
All of North America
so goes
the middle class..
"Its a cancer that is spreading throughout America"
Since there wasn't a mass dieoff, the metastases spread somewhere.
Let it burn.
The cancer has a name it's called collectivism. The big lie. The DemoRATs use envy, hate and lies to sell it the the low character "citizen".
No character. No country.
can you accelerate self destruction pls so EU medias can show all this then ppl put your ttip in your throat, avoiding our 2k years civilisation going down like your ?
and close door behing you, the smell is awful.
It's all weather related! Chair woman Yellen will confirm this.
That is what happens when they kick out productive citizens and welcome welfare bums, bums like to destroy everything and in the end nature wins the land back. All I see are shrub and bushes near or infront of the home silently waiting to take over that home. In the end even the parasites can't live in the cities they created.
United States of Ghetto...just as the globalists planned...get ready, it's coming to a city near you soon!
If only we had a black or democrat president he would not have allowed this to happen to his people
Not if the black president thinks he is white and Irish.
And not if he comes from a banking family, was a CIA plant and a dedicated NWO enforcer
An 'american' president exists to serve and do the biddings of the 'american' middle class.
It can not be otherwise.
The common factor? 'Americanism'.
Maybe Obama is Irish. he just dropped the apostrophe between the "O" and the "B"
topspinslicer If only we had a black or democrat president he would not have allowed this to happen to his people

Now that is some blunt sarcasm. You could give RevRex a lesson. Up arrrow for you.
Let's fix Ukraine first!
Don't forget Egypt, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Kuwait..... Detroit doesn't have oil (or pipelines), so it's off the "humanitarian aid" list. Can't wait 'till SoCal turns slumville.
You've never visited Hollywood have you?
The generals in Egypt get their F16's and Al-Qaeda in Syria gets their rocket launchers.......
I am so confused. We went into a country where there was no Al Qaeda. We deposed the Saddam and Al Qaeda springs up. We send Iraq F-16's. The F-16's are there to help the Iraqis fight Al Qaeda (which we fund). So we are funding Al Qaeda and the people trying to kill Al Qaeda. FML. /Sarc off
Ukraine got a billion dollars from Obama admin. The media never calls him out on this.
We can't "fix it". It's not an economic problem. The root cause is a lack of character of the population. After generations of DemoRAT indoctronication you have no chance of even communicating with one of their (the RAT's) victims.
yeah, these houses did not just decay on their own in 3 short years, they were "helped along" by the friendly neighbors.
Homeless scrappers pushing a shopping cart. You see that in every American ghetto.
forward!
Barackwards!!!!!!!
IIRC none of these areas were that great to begin with even in 2009. Brightmoor has been a shithole for years and years.
not that great to worse than Slavyansk in 5 years.
I see we went full retard on this post. Cloudy winter days as opposed to bright summer days and homes that had caught on fire.
It's a fucking apocalypse.
The internet is bullshit.
A pig with lipstick is still a pig, no matter when you take the photograph.
Have you been there yourself? I have...live within a half hour drive. Doesn't look exaggerated to me. In fact areas that were the nicer areas look pretty rough. The burnt up houses are the worst IMO. I understand that the general progression (other than plain ol' arson) is that criminals move into abandoned properties and then locals burn it to drive them out.
"Your honor, please, it was spontaneous combustion, not arson...."
Yup! You're right! Must've been that "harsh winter" that tore down these houses. That's the same "harsh winter" that knocked down our GDP too!
Looks like whaty happened to my Section 8 rental house a few years ago. That's why I'm out of the Landlord biz.
Screw dat.
Let me guess - azerbaijani jews? I've had the same damn problem, every time.
When will we ever learn?

Onlookers steal groceries from SUV after driver dies in fatal crash
Today a 23-year-old woman in Houston was killed in a car crash after pulling out of a private drive into fast-moving traffic. After she was killed, onlookers stole the groceries out of the back of her SUV.

Who are these voters?
There was a time when you could drive down Dowling street on a saturday night and not worry, too much.
Not sure I would do it now.
Q: Who are these voters?
A: Diebold.

Obama's second term.
GM is alive and Ben Laden is dead!
Looks like they're really taking a round turn on the city! LOL
They should just turn Detroit into a giant nuclear waste storage facility.
Anyone here old enough to remember the movie " Kentucky Fried movie " back in the 70s ?
An evil war lord caught two US spies. He wanted infomration which they refused to give. So the warlord chopped off the head of one of them and asked if the second spy would now talk. The spy refused for he is not afraid of getting his head chopped off.
Warlord: " You are not talking ? "
Spy: "No."
WarLord: " Take him to Detroit ! "
Spy " Oh no, dont take me to Detroit, I will tell you anything"
