Description found, as is, at the packard plant. just like the chair, this is a perfectly fitting statement about a city on it's last legs.

I was born in Detroit. I moved from there when I was nearly 9 years old. I don't remember much, but I remember seeing things like this. Its a very profound photo, if you have been to Detroit and know where its coming from. I saw this when you posted it in my thread, and even though it was small, I was instantly drawn to it. I was surprised when I saw the full size.

Thanks for posting such a great photo. It means a lot to me, for some reason.

This is a very striking photo. I like the message on the board in comparison to the rest of the photo which is of a rundown room and chair. Very nicely composed. GOod work!

Very nice shot! The composition is really well done One thing I think would improve this shot is taking it at a later time in the day when the sun is coming directly through the window and causing the chair to cast a shadow.

Great compostion with a nice sarcastic mood. What an awesome find. All the grungy textures work just perfectly.
