Ghost Town: 1942
February 1942. "Detroit, Michigan. Looking towards downtown from the slum area in the early morning. These are conditions under which families lived before moving to the Sojourner Truth housing project." 4x5 acetate negative by Arthur Siegel for Life magazine. View full size.
Side Winder
Looking southwest from the aforeseen Bishop School playground. The apartment house is 948-50 Winder Street. Unlike the school, which survived initial freeway construction, this block was leveled c. 1960.
Almost two decades later - right before the end - looking from the other direction, and very little had changed.
