Detroit = St. Louis?

"I'm not going to get into the complicated cultural ramifications of Detroit's long and steady decline into what basically amounts to pre-Apocalypse, post-Apocalyptic disaster. It's like a bomb went off that killed all the people but left all the buildings intact. Well, kind of intact. There is a lot to love about Detroit, in that condescending way that people love something because they don't have to be a part of it. But the reality is that it's a ghost town, and even most of the ghosts are just driving in from the suburbs to hang out at a bar for a couple of hours before driving back out again. Its collapse is beautiful in a way. And completely unacceptable. This is what happens when Katrina happens over decades."
