Detroit Self Portrait

Even as it sits, crumbled and abandoned, Michigan Central Station remains one of the great landmarks of the City of Detroit. The decay of this building mirrors the struggles that its city has been thru, especially over the last few years. Detroit is a city filled with talented artists, and people come from all over the world to see the art they create, just as people still venture to this train station to see its greatness and the art within its broken walls despite being closed down for over 20 years. The most important similarity between The City of Detroit and Michigan Central is that after all these years of abuse and neglect they both are still standing tall! If there was a self portrait of Detroit, it would be this building.
