I'm not sure where I first saw this project, but I immediately fell in love with
100 Abandoned Houses. This documentary of sorts was started by Kevin Bauman, who
writes poignantly about the thousands of houses that have been left for worse in Detroit. The images he's taken are nostalgic, depressing, and beautiful. Looking at these makes me feel somehow protective of the houses. I know that neighborhoods can transform, but I wonder if there is potential for there to be new life in these once magnificent homes.
