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.

    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.

    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.

    .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.

    hey, so me and my buddy are planning an exploration in Detroit. Are there any places you've gone that you would recommend? Is there anything we should be on the lookout for?

    There's some great videos on KZread 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.

    It’s a video of Detroit’s history. Nothing negative about it. I love Detroit ❤️. I film abandoned historical and cultural buildings and locales.
