Motor City lockdown downtown looking decidedly lonely during the COVID-19 shelter in place state of emergency March 2020.

Great shots Docta... the city has great bones and those pics scream "renaissance".. hope it's happening. One parking lot at a time ;-)

The skyline looks better than I’ve ever seen it. Filling in Meridian/Former Compuware building adds more than I thought it would, and the Book Tower certainly looks gorgeous. Thanks for posting.

Brush Park is looking amazing.

I saw this historic Corktown home dating to 1848 for sale but what really caught my eye was the accompanying photo tour.

Its been a while but here are interesting rarely seen angles and areas of the Motor City.

Detroit looks like abandoned city:(

A good ‘ole slice of Detroit’s old eastside preserved as the enclave of Hamtramck the south side of which is in focus here. The area has a long and colorful history of being a stop of first choice for many new immigrants to the motor city, once a Polish stronghold along with neighboring Poletown Detroit. Recent years have seen waves of middle eastern, south asian and eastern europe (mainly from Muslim regions of former Yugoslavia but also some Ukrainians). This make up has created one of the most interesting communities in the region. Truly a unique concoction a cosmopolitan working class city with a strong community pride it’s arts and cultural scene is vibrant with a low key national reputation. Last but not least downtown Hamtown has culinary reputation with a draw that extends beyond paczki and kielbasa lovers.

This was first posted on detroityes by 313rd and then on the compilation page but it’s definitely worth cataloging on this thread as it’s a great capture of the progress being made on downtowns two newest high-rises.

“The Towns at The Corner” development around the historic tiger stadium field has been making progress to the point where we can get an idea of the finished product.

A possible glimpse of the direction Corktown is heading in that fits well with its historic character. https://images.marketleader.com/Hous...0111663_41.jpg Anthony Gargaro - EXP Realty An announcement was made recently regarding the last phase of the project will begin construction filling in the NW corner of the site soon. https://images.marketleader.com/Hous...0089845_20.jpg Anthony Gargaro - EXP Realty I like scoping real estate pages for pics that you just can’t take yourself without a certain allocation of resources but sometimes I end up getting real pissed off like with this one the house marker ruins an otherwise dope skyline view from the Richard-Hubbard neighborhood. https://images.marketleader.com/Hous...0082847_16.jpg Shea Hicks Whitfield - Alexander Real Estate Detroit https://images.marketleader.com/Hous...0082847_17.jpg Shea Hicks Whitfield - Alexander Real Estate Detroit https://images.marketleader.com/Hous...0082847_18.jpg Shea Hicks Whitfield - Alexander Real Estate Detroit |
Russell Woods is a key neighborhood in terms of linking the urban core of greater downtown and surrounding neighborhoods with the university district and by extension the urban friendly woodward corridor suburbs. Livernois is beginning to very similar on both sides of 8 mile a vibrant shopping district. There’s still a ways to go but the Joe Louis Greenway and the Fitzgerald Neighborhood revitalization project will go a long way to better tying these important areas together.

A place near and dear to heart Old Redford it’s a small downtown area in NW Detroit with a funky artist community that knows how to throw a party.
