We have some groups of Hollywooders around here lately…Looks like Ransom Gillis is going to be in a new film now.

Anybody know for sure what production this is ? They were polite and had no security goons, so I know it isn’t Transformers.

The Hollywooders even have special parking powers..they can park in no parking zones without anyone batting an eyelash. They are that special.

Here is Building 5 with its roof still intact, just one year ago.

Here is Building 5 seen from the top of a neighboring building, one year ago.

Here is the top of Building 5 as of this week.

This is a shot from one year ago – I am standing on the roof looking at the top utility level.

Here it is now, with only the utility level remaining perched above what used to be the roof.

This set of photos is from the staircase, and all the way around the top floor.

This is a view from one year ago, facing south from the roof of Building 5.

Utility company blew up their own gas line, killing a man in his home and destroying several other houses and garages.

Looks like we are going to be saying goodbye to an old local standard – The Drew and Mike Show on WRIF FM radio. I guess it is one of those “if it ain’t broke, fix it” things that happen in the radio industry so often.

One day soon we will wake up and WRIF 101.1 FM will be sports talk radio.

Early this morning there was a suspicious fire at the Heidelberg Project. The structure known as the Obstruction of Justice House, or the “O.J. House” was burned in the back, totally destroying two thirds of the building.

The Obstruction of Justice House was first created in 1995.

Artist Tyree Guyton stands amongst the half burnt mess that used to be the OJ House.

It’s going to be a long summer.

Former American Motors / Kelvinator-Nash Administration Building

Built in 1927, designed by architects from Smith Hinchman and Grylls.

I am not sure what is going on with this building right now, I am hearing things about the owner scrapping and a pending demolition.

Indeed, something is being removed from the property in an ongoing fashion.

Ah, spring in Detroit…the wild dogs run carefree..

Food is plentiful.

Soon there will be green leaves on the trees that are not dead.

Tumble-weaves..

And all the rotten plushies waking from their long winter naps..

Yeah – over there on eric street..
