Bombed Out?

Visiting the multi-building complex of the Packard Motor Company was a very strange experience. The complex spans multiple city blocks and is so wide open and accessible that there is a constant flow of tourists to the site. I don't mean urban explorers, I mean plain old tourists; families with their kids, that sort of thing. The site itself is quite barren after years of scrapping. More than anything, it reminds me of images of WWII-era bombed out Europe.
