No, Virginia, this isn't Augusta, Georgia. It's Detroit, Michigan.
After the events of 1967 and after decades of Devil's Night fires, there are now many rural pockets like this in Detroit. All one need do to find them is to go out and explore, taking snapshots like Alberto Korda.
Me thinks the idea is if you abandon enough of it, there is money to made tearing down the vacant structures...but there is no money to be had, so we burn them down instead.
