This is really sad.

I've heard that Detroit is pretty much a shithole these days, but this is saddening:

Up and down Detroit’s streets, buildings stand abandoned and in ruin. French photographers Yves Marchand and Romain Meffre set out to document the decline of an American city. Their book “The Ruins of Detroit“, a document of decaying buildings frozen in time, was published in December 2010.

RTWT ... there's 32 pictures of buildings that are simply rotting away.

Like I said ... sad. h/t Ace's headline sidebar
