I ran across these photos and story of the Detroit Public Schools Book Depository on a few blogs last week. The photos have gotten every comment from “how beautiful” to “I can’t believe some @#$%&! would let this happen”.

Basically it’s a huge building of books that have just been left to rot.  It’s all really kind of depressing. All the photos are here while the post explaining why and who forgot about all these books is here. How sad.
