"Slovak Home, Alone"


Found this sad building in an area known as Poletown in Detroit. The whole area was decimated when GM decided to build a factory there. All the homes were bought up on the cheap and the residents had to relocate. Now, 20 years later, GM decided to close the plant. This elegant building is one of the few remnants of the Eastern European community that once thrived there. The roof has collapsed and I'm sure it'll be torn down in the next year or two.
