This is a great news story: Once a symbol of Detroit’s downturn, the iconic Michigan Central Station reopens its doors at CBC News. It has come a long way since I wrote about it back in 2008: Detroit: the future sadly (Smart People I Know). A building once waterlogged and crusted with graffiti has been restored to its former beauty and glory.

The CBC news story has more on it including some inside shots. It makes me glad to see them. Here’s to a resurgent Detroit.
