It sure is, it's very hard to imagine that it was once the 4th largest city in America. The rest of the country sped on past it. I believe it was in the top 10 as late as the early 2000's, but lost 13 spots in less than 2 decades. Suburbs have high population, but I don't see them moving back into the city.

ps. I like your Churchill quote
