Abandoned as a rail corridor in the 1980s, the Dequindre Cut in Detroit almost become an expressway to a new riverfront casino in the 1990s. Instead, it became one of the more impressive greenways/#cycling corridors of any city in North America. #cities #biketooter #transport #urbanism

@JasonThorne I am sure it is bleak when you are on the ground, but there is something beautiful about abandon post industrial buildings.

@ArchitectMing Yes there is! And even better is formerly abandoned industrial buildings that have found new uses. If you ever find yourself in Hamilton let me know and I’ll show you some great ones!

@JasonThorne That will be lovely. I always want to visit the US and Canada to learn more about your cities and neighbourhoods.
