Photo opportunities near Ann Arbor Michigan?

Lenord,
I'll second the http://detroityes.com/toc.htm site for urban decay its my fav. I'm in chicago and have relitives in the Grosspoint area (no urban decay there thats for sure) I often visit these desolate areas but be carefull, alot of Detroit is like the West side of chicago VERY VERY dangerous. It's a far cry from the Ann Arbor Art Faire, I'm just guessing that is the purpose of you visit. Good luck and good light.

I must take exception to michael's exaggerated admonition. Don't believe the hype. Parts of Detroit are dangerous, yes, but no more so than any other major industrial American city. If you visit Detroit, don't be stupid, keep your wits about you, just as if you were visiting Chicago, New York, Atlanta, etc.

And by the way, there is decay, but much more than that to photograph in Detroit.
