No, this isnt post Katrina New Orleans… And no, there is no water nearby this place either.
Just lots of “land boats” as I call them.
This house sits in one of the hundreds of ghost town areas in Detroit. Places where streets are abandoned, or just blocked off – places where few houses remain and wildlife and anarchy have over run the area.

These blown out houses are some of the most dangerous things in the City, many have the natural gas utility still left on. I can not tell you how many I have seen that are just left gushing gas into the open air. Whole blocks of them.

I disturbed a large ghetto pheasant tromping through the prairie grass.
Somebody “torched” a car here: i.e. burning it probably for insurance fraud.
Heres a Google Maps satellite image of this hood:
