Blacked-out building in Detroit

Here's another only-in-Detroit scene. In most places if someone wants to pretty-up an eyesore building, whitewash is used. But in the case of this abandoned retail storefront at 5668 Michigan Avenue--which looks like it was an old bank branch--coal black paint was used.

The result is predictably--horrible!

As you might be able to see, there is a spray-painted for-sale message.
