There is a project underway in Detroit to build a 3.3 mile modern streetcar system. Working downtown, I often take a walk around the downtown area with my camera.
Figured it was a nice project to start, capture the progress of this project.

First batch of images is with the D7100 & Tamron 17-50 2.8.
Let me know what you think :)

Great pictures and I loved Detroit when I lived there. Wished it could really get back on its feet. Detroit was such an incredible city that has so much that could be going for it. Now if the Lions could only make it to playing in a Super bowl it would truly be a sign of great things to come :) and everyone out here in Utah would stop laughing at my loyalty every time I say it will happen one day just like Linus holding out hope for the Great Pumpkin.

Looking at the photos made laugh and think back to the days of Mayor Coleman Young's train embezzling fiasco. Hope this project goes far better.

Sorry I meandered off, but the photos were great and brought back memories.

LoL, no sweat. True words above.
Detroit is on it's way back, one small section at a time.
