Detroit 1978
A brief look back at Detroit, Michigan.
For a class assignment, a 17 year-old photography student took a Rollie 35mm camera and some slide film and captured these shots of Detroit in April, 1978. Although the 1970’s was a period of decline for this great city, the Renaissance Center had just opened a year before and there were still glimpses of beauty and normalcy.
Forty years later, some things have definitely changed and some have thankfully remained the same.
