A haunting essay/slide show about Detroit.
The day before I arrived, the frozen body of a man was found in the elevator shaft of an abandoned warehouse; only the feet were visible, the rest of the body being entirely encased in ice. The homeless men living in the warehouse, treating the corpse as unremarkable, ignored it for a month, and when a journalist finally called 911, it took the police two days to arrive on the scene. (It was later determined that the man died from a cocaine overdose.)
The photo of the Michigan Theater, now converted into a parking garage, is also incredible.
