Here's a couple of pictures I took today of the Michigan Central Depot. It's probably the most-photographed building in Detroit, and is among the most-photographed buildings in the country.
The last passenger passed through its doors and 1988. After it was closed looters immediately stripped it of everything of value. Wikipedia covers the sad story of this Detroit Landmark at the link below.
If you look carefully, you can see the words "SAVE THE DEPOT" spelled out near the top of the building.
