Detroit's Famously Decaying Old Train Station Has 5 New Windows and No One Knows Why
You have to start somewhere, we guess?
Perhaps no building is seen as a symbol of Detroit's struggles as much as Michigan Central Station. The face of American ruin porn, its 18-story tower makes the hollowed-out, decrepit former train station easy to find throughout the city. So some recent, and very minor, additions have locals curious.
Hollowed out and window-free for years, there are now five, yes just five, brand new windows that have been reinstalled in 2013 so far. Windows one, two and three even garnered the attention of the local media in February and March.
