The Long Crisis

Posts Tagged ‘Detroit City’

Economic decline severely effects our cities as you would expect. The troubling thing is once underway how quickly and complete the decline can occur .

The erosion of Detroit’s industrial base, lead by the automotive industry, has lead to an abundance of abandoned factory buildings and skyscrapers across the city. The blighted areas have had a severe impact on the surrounding communities. Now with the probable bankruptcy of General Motors and Chrysler Detroit is likely doomed as a livable city.

Not that it’s such a great place to live as it is. Take a look at the video. Is the Detroit of today a front runner of America’s rush to a third world status nation? Will skyscrapers become abandoned danger zones across the nation?

We are likely to find out within a very few years. Big city dwellers are in for some terrible times as infrastructure crumbles. The Long Crisis is well advanced in Detroit and may be coming to a city near you.
