The Lafayette Building, located at 144 W. Lafayette Blvd. in downtown Detroit was recently demolished for what is being reported as a pocket park.

Since being abandoned in 1997, the city of Detroit, the owners of the structure, have failed to mothball the historic 1924 building. After pieces of the facade fell off the building recently, the city rushed to the decision to demolish the Lafayette.

What is shown yet again is the lack of vision and planning by the leaders in the city. A piece of urban fabric will be replaced with nothing to take its place.

Where are we going for spring break? No where, just Detroit :) Second time I've been downtown in four days. And I don't mind one bit.

She and I went to the Wings game (which they lost, ugh) but we left early to mill around. I wanted to take some pictures of the Book-Cadillac to do something for Adam, and today's weather was perfect. As we were walking down Washington, these two dudes were like, "Are y'all twins?" If we got $1 every time someone asked that, we'd be millionaires. We stopped at Hart Plaza to do this.

Those two buildings directly behind us and to the right are some of my least favorite buildings, buttt.. it's not like I can move them.

Good day :)
