What is that old depot in your town used for today?

The Amtrack station in Dearborn is not old, still used as a train station and is nothing to talk about. <br /> However in the old days you would catch a street car or bus that ran on overhead wire, to the [url="http://members.tripod.com/~Rappollo/mcs.html"]<b><u>Michigan Central Station</b></u>[/url] (once owned by NYC). Today the MCS is just a shell of its former self. Years on neglect and vandles have ruined the building. Every once in a while, there's a big anouncement with great fanfare, that the building will be restored. Then nothing will come of it. The latest plan was to renovate it for a new police station. But the City of Detroit can't even afford to pay for police and fire fighters, so that plan went down the tubes. <br /> <br /> (click on highlighted words for link)
