For those who don't know....the train Depot is now owned by Ford and will be undergoing extensive renovations to headquarter their autonomous vehicle center....it is no longer abandoned
This all stems from outsourcing. When jobs go overseas, residents and people of these communities and cities are left to find low-wage jobs compete for jobs that are scarce or they scatter. This is a sad tale. They always want to blame the people of these communities but what about the jobs, what happened to the jobs, where did these companies go? They outsourced, they went overseas for cheaper labor and left communities like this behind. What a sad tale.
Chrially2931. Agreed! I live in Saltillo, the Detroit of, Mexico. The rich, Republican, oligarcs moved the USA auto assembly plants here. Miles long trains come into the city at night with auto parts and the trains leave in the afternoon for the USA with so called, American vehicles. An assembly line worker here in Mexico earns about US $12 to $15 US dollars per DAY! That is less than USA workers earn per hour! And, when was the last time you saw USA car and pickup prices go down? If one believes that the USA rich Republicans are ever going to give up their lucrative stock dividends to return jobs to the USA , I would like to know what kind of weed that you are smoking. Trump is an oligarc. Why would he work against the intrests of fellow oligarcs_ Hint He wont. p.s. Sorry about the punctuation. but, my software cannot handle constant switching between Spanish and English. !Saludos desde Mexico!
While it is true that outsourcing auto jobs to Mexico has impacted the industry as a whole it is not really what happened in Detroit. The last assembly plant to close inside the city was the Clark St. Cadillac Assembly plant in 1986. Many of those employees transferred to the then new Poletown Assembly. Most Detroit plant closures took place in the 1970s and 1980s due to a shift in technology away from rear wheel drive platforms. What happened to dozens of other communities around the country from Kenosha Wi. to Wilmington Del. in the 90s and 2000s happened in Detroit years before. There are still three assembly plants either completely or partially inside the city. Detroits problems are multi dimensional. Job loss from the fifties through the eighties, middle class flight, race relations, drugs, crime and crooked politicians blended together for the perfect storm of decay and desolation. But things are looking up. Ford Motor is renovating Michigan Central Station as a part of a huge new development campus in Corktown bringing up to 5000 new jobs, Mahindra, an Indian company is building a new assembly center and Chemical Bank just announced construction of a new world head quarters on Woodward Ave. in the Fox Theater area. Now the city has to increase its focus on the neighborhoods. A tough challenge to say the least.
Same thing has happened big style in the UK with jobs going to EU countries like Romania where the average wage is £250 a month. That's why we voted to leave Europe in 2016.
For your information downtown Detroit is booming at the moment with reconstruction and it will look awesome your making it sound like Detroit is some hole in the wall and you go by going through the backroads.
Something was done wrong in our country. My Cleveland is also running out. In my parents' Pittsburg, they managed to organize themselves and did not have these ruins, but Pitty have half the population of 1960. New Orleans is gone. Dear Philly just doesn't end because it's so big. What will be in our country? Will it be reduced to Manhattan and Beverly Hills?
Detroit's old & unused or underused former auto plants have much potential. As Detroit redevlopes & gentrfies & becomes more appealing to wealthy people it is important to remember that many wealthy people are car collectors. Imagine how cool it would be to say your new-old townhouse is part of a old auto plant. Ford's old Piquete Ave plant has garage doors on the first floor. Then it looks like 3 floors above that. Why not 6 to 8 bedroom lofts designed for car collectors? These new luxury lofts for car collectors could be marketed in Hemmings Motor News.
"As Detroit redevelops & gentrifies & becomes more appealing to wealthy people..." Wait. What...??? You ARE kidding, right? So...lemme get this straight: wealthy people are going to move into an abandoned, drug and crime infested shithole where their stuff will be spray painted, they will be mugged and shot and black transvestites looking for johns will be about the only ones roaming the streets? Is THAT what you mean by "re-development and gentrification"....? Jus' wonderin'.
It sad how they are not trying to preserved the history of Detroit which has an impact on the old world sad,sad! Knocking down historical bluildings which dosen"t make since to me.
Preserve what a building . Preserve something that will be around for thousands of years like pyramid great wall. Would you spend a dollar to save something that cost a penny
sticker shock - Bedrock Detroit is leading the drive to rebuild the city, from the Downtown District outwards. Young adults see a place to work and live in a city of imagination, low living costs, and a growing community of innovative companies in search of workers.
What do you think about while watching this ?For myself...I think of the blood sweat and tears that the workers of those days gave to companies that abandoned them and the town.Whole lives were spent and or wasted on a false promise of a glorious future for the American work force and the generations to follow. But..it's not only the auto manufatcurers.but Textile, steel ect..So Sad.
To everyone's shock and disbelief, our government simply stated out of the blue, the pension fund promised to us has been spent and is no longer available. Who would have ever guessed our own country would lie, deceive, and abandon us? Instead of retiring, government now insists we take control of our own retirement savings in the form of the 401k.
I can't understand the fact that there's over 300 million americans in the States and i haven't seen a single bloody soul walking in the streets of Detroit in this entire video.
8:44, the car parked there is a million dollar GT40 and those are so rare that you make an appointment to see and bid on one, so if a person got their hands on one never registered, it never existed.!! Wow, there in less than ten minutes are cars worth more than I made working all my life
Just FYI- The Chevrolet dealership that the narrator claimed was closed is actually open, James Martin Chevrolet has been there forever and operates a thriving business, being one of only a few new car dealerships in the city.
Someone that worked there for years they put so much money developing just the buildings making thousands of cars, how can this go so wrong? Who pocketed all the money if I worked here I would be so sad to see it in this way. I live in St. Louis home where they made corvettes now the place looks like a foreign country all rotting away. I visited Australia their cities are new and kept clean no one trashes their cities. USA is not a great country o live and raise a family. Sad, so sad.
from what I have heard, the yuppies are buying up these old buildings and turning them into high end condos! that would be great because it is just a big mess downtown! A bunch of concrete, twisted steel and broken windows!
Linda. For petes sake you have no idea what you are talking about. Downtown is fine. The office occupancy rate is +94% New office buildings are being built. Chemical Bank announced today that they are moving their corporate headquarters into the city and building and constructing a 20 story building on Woodward Avenue. Look at Detroit comeback videos and educate yourself.
June 2021: This would be a nightmare at night,...I bet a lot of dead bodies end up being dumped here. I have explored this ruin in photos and other videos,....it is damned scary there and sad that a new use was never found. Due to the 2020 Pandemic, the Central Terminal project is/was on hold, but is expected to resume, soon.
Crime is down in Detroit. Still a long way to go but trending in the right direction. I live downtown. The latest data shows that downtown, midtown, new center, cork town. and woodbridge crime rates are lower than Houston, Dallas and Denver downtown areas. As far as visiting? No problem. Stay away. We are fine with that.
The city’s coming back. Detroiters are rebuilding their city at the same they are reclaiming their heritage. They don't need your defeatist bullshit. Adiós!👋
If I lived in Detroit, I'd make a hustle by offering guided blight & squalor tours. It's a kinda niche tourism market perhaps Detroit should embrace. Many people would find it all quite fascinating.
Who would have thought Detroit would go from the most powerful city in America to a burned out, destroyed, and abandoned city In such a short period of time. Sadly, It's one of many cities who have suffered the same fate. As corporations outsourced their labor to other countries to save money, the middle class ceased to exist. Even if corporations were to bring labor back, It's too late. There are those who are wealthy, and those who are in poverty. The one word responsible for this and eventually the destruction of this planet Is greed.
This is another fascinating but sad video. I guess in a nut shell Detroit boomed with the manufacture and sales of all American cars but was hit hard by cheap foreign imports. Detroit is a monument to the pitfalls of world trade. I wonder if America was more isolationist and refused foreign imports or placed such large tariffs that buying American would always be the cheaper option. With all this in mind it does make sense what Trump is trying to do
Another major factor that brought Detroit down was the 50+ year monolithic rule of the Democratic Party in its city government. When the democrats completely took over around 1960, they immediately went to work with jacking up taxes on business and industry along with their never ending pandering to both corrupt organized labor and the unmotivated urban poor. After the 1967 rebellion or riots, Detroit went into free fall and the democrats made the city more uncompetitive with higher taxes and their continued pandering to both corrupt organized labor and the unmotivated urban poor just drove even more business, industry along with taxpaying residents right out of the city. These failed urban policies continued through the 70s, 80s, and 90s and Detroit went from a proud, prosperous city of almost 2,000,000 in population to a deteriorated, diminished, drug invested, poverty stricken city of barely 700,000 in population.
While I dont completely agree with all of your points much of what you say is true. I am a Republican living in the city. A relative rarity. There is significant positive change underway driven by massive private sector investment and a pragmatic Democrat mayor. For the first time in my adult life I believe that this comeback is real. There is a lifetime of work still to go to make it city wide but even I am now optimistic. It will be interesting to see what the anti democrats who fill the comment sections of these videos will say when the city has truly turned the corner.
Six Mile, you seem to be huge fan of your town. I read "Big Promises for a Thriving Urban Core in Detroit Vanish into a Swath of Parking Lots" by a reporter for the Guardian, Oct. 8th, 2018, I had a hard time believing that almost 100% of the comments were so degrading and blaming. I then looked at images for Detroit and got a different story. It sounded like the stories were talking about two different places entirely. I hope you are telling the right story.
It is obvious that you have never been to Detroit. You tube Detroit comeback. Lots of amazing stuff going on. Massive infusion of private sector funding, construction, rebuilding, companies moving in. Still a lot to do but expand your horizons and look at some of the good stuff..
L B The simple answer is no. The Republicans at the national level have little, if anything, to do with the comeback. Same goes for national Democrats. The comeback is a homegrown thing. Up until this past November we had a Republican Governor who I liked. He stubbed his toe with the Flint thing but overall was a good governor who worked closely with the city. The city has a moderate Democrat mayor who is pro-business and pro-resident. Together they have worked hard to start the comeback which is now for real. The actual heroes are the private investors. From billionaires like Dan Gilbert and Roger Penske to little guys like the man around the corner from me who opened up a fruit market in an abandoned store front. The comeback is being driven by private money and pragmatic, cooperative politicians. I am a card carrying Republican who has worked on dozens of local and statewide campaigns. I disagree with a lot of the Democrat agenda but know the the blame for the downfall of Detroit can be spread out among a lot people over a broad political spectrum. With all due respect. Your rhetoric about Democrats is just the simpleton nonsense of a person ignorant of the challenges that Detroit faces every day. My advice is to quit looking at nine year old videos and educate yourself about the realities of the city. Be honest. Have you ever even been in the city of Detroit? It’s funny. Most people who spew political nonsense about our city never respond to that question.

One of the saddest videos I've seen. I would love to see President Trumps' government tackle the problem of bringing Detroit back. I don't know what the solution is.
Who ever owns that is so rich that wheel borrows were invented to pack their money for them yet they write it off as a loss to them because it is shut down and not making "x" dollars and write it off... the double dipper

So damn much automotive history there and its just neglected, I worked for GM in an assembly plant for 31 years and this is just sad.
where did all the industry operator go? went to Korea & China?
This was very difficult to watch....a range of emotions. Mostly its just sad.
