I grew up in Detroit and went there when it was actually a movie theatre. Lots of good memories but so sad to see those beautiful old buildings disappear because of neglect. Those buildings cannot ever be replaced. I'm so ashamed of my city that they allowed that to happen to many many beautiful old buildings.

For those of us who have never been there watching urban exploration videos of the inside really puts the space into perspective, what an amazing venue this used to be. Reflects a time when Detroit was in its hayday.

How very sad to see such beautiful architecture being demolished.

As a very old Detroiter..., I watched so much of our history demolished, that I have no tears to cry any more. I have also come to realize..., that you can not save them all. Thank God for photos.

I feel so heart sick when I see something like this happen. Another piece of history demolished and gone forever. What a shame !!!!!!

For long time residents of Detroit, this has got to be so unbelievable. I got bad, then it got worse. And its still getting worse.

Using the music recording from that theatre was a good touch. At least that survives.

Breaks my heart. Saw the Dead there. Floyd, Delany and Bonnie, Etc. Etc.

Spent many days and nights there enjoying the music and the wonderful people.

I lived in Detroit until 1963, when I joined the Navy. All my family and friends fled for their lives after the 1967 riots. And all those landmarks I knw as a teenager are coming down. Sigh.........

In the 1920s there was more steel being used in Detroit than anywhere else in the world. Not used due to car production, but for all of the new buildings that were rising.

In 1963, here in San Francisco, the 1929 5000 seat Fox Theatre was demolished...it was in excellent condition...and was slated to be our symphony hall. Politics and special interests took center stage...gone! This beautiful theatre can be googled under San Francisco Fox for photos/history.

The archway tiles and column tiles would have been nice to have salvaged.
