#Detroit, Cass Ave, c.1976-2025. This northward view of Chinatown in the Cass Corridor before its marked post 1980 decline. Chung's hung around until 2000, and the building still stands. The long gone luxury 1910's Aderna Court Apts was reduced to a low rent hotel by the '60's.

Interurban trolley lines in New England and Detroit, early 1900s. Sorry for ruining your day.

Detroit’s Lee Plaza has windows again! 🤝 This historic piece of architecture sat hollowed out for years. It towered ominously over the west side neighborhood. And now it’s receive new windows, the facade has been largely repaired, and more to come! 📸 @jordangarlandmi

A fresh chapter for one of Detroit’s overlooked architectural gems. Facade restoration of the Washington Boulevard Apartments is bringing new life to a building designed over 100 years ago by legendary architect Louis Kamper- the mind behind the Book Tower. 📸 @JordanGarlandMI

This can't be legal! It takes 2x as many signatures for an Independent to get on the ballot than a Democrat or a Republican. (Spoiler: It's because they wrote the rules.) Want to help me get on the ballot and give voters a third choice? Go to MikeDuggan.com and get your petition packet.

12 years as Mayor of Detroit and I ended with an 84% approval rating. I didn't get that by dividing people. I got it by delivering results for everyone. That's what I'll do for Michigan.
