Although I had seen some, the the Feral Houses of Detroit (BTW, readers should look at the whole slide show), most I had not. <br /><br />Particularly enjoyed the Florida think tank graphic and the strategic planning one, which I will return to to read more of the discussion there.

The picture of the feral house in Detroit is gorgeous. I don't know if that's kudzu; it doesn't quite look like it. I wouldn't think it would grow that far north, but it almost reminds of me of some of the houses in New Orleans that succumbed to Katrina, only this Detroit photo is far, far more advanced.
