Abandoned:The Pontiac Silverdome

[David_TheMan]

I live here so I'm well aware, we are trying to turn it into a massive indoor park or a hotel but voters keep shooting those good ideas down.

Sounds like its good they shoot it down. If someone wants to do something with it, they should buy it, not make the shyty pay for it.

 

[MercuryHayes]

lol at rebel against their ignorant racist parents when these gentrifers are just as ignorant and racist but don't believe they are which is more dangerous.

Tounge in cheek verbiage, friend.

nikkas still thinking Detroit in 2017 looks like Detroit in 07
we got four arenas in our downtown off the beautiful water and they think it's still robocop or some shyt
Gentrification is a gift and a curse tho

Abandon skyscrapers?

Is this so?

Dan Gilbert bought a sky scraper for like five million a few years ago

I watched the Blockbuster & Circuit City "Abandoned" videos.


Nostalgia like a muthafukka


Those abandoned malls, to.


Such a melancholy feeling

Even my son caught some anxiety "Is that going to happen to our malls dad?"

Funny how that place was a football stadium but is known more for basketball games and a wrestling show.

I'll never forget that place off the strength of the GOAT NBA Finals (1988)

5million....

That thing might collapse any minute.

Dan Gilbert's impact on Detroit just keeps growing
Five million was me joking he really paid like 30 million but he got like three or so giant skyscrapers and building

[Biscayne]

It would be cool to see wealthy blacks buying property in Detroit. Like a renaissance.

Silverdome
Superdome
Metrodome
Hoosierdome
Kingdome
Georgia dome

All from an era that was pretty remarkable for sports expansion and even architecture...all dead

skydome isn't
just has been renamed

 

[Rich Spirit]

Believe it or not the Astrodome is still standing.. why I don't know

Yea and now the Dome is named state historical landmark so its not going nowhere.

How the fukk you have abandoned sky scrapers in a downtown American city.

I believe it because I never thought I'd see abandoned malls

But, I know 3 off hand and one so empty the just put all the stores at the front of the mall and leave the left empty
