Yeah. The last time I went snooping around at recent images of Detroit, it looked like huge chunks of it are-------gone.
The same with my old stomping grounds, Youngstown, Ohio. Although it's an improvement with Y-town. Old steel mills and abandoned neighborhoods had stood vacant and delapidated for years before they finally started razing it.
I was there two years ago, and it looked much cleaner, albeit far smaller, than it was thirty years ago. In the '80s that place was, quite literally, a war zone.
