Michigan Central Station - a true beauty
She is glorious with stories, so many stories,
historic stories of architecture, ruin, renewal,
stories of new offices, stories yet to be written on her floors,
stories of passengers and passersby,
stories of departures and arrivals,
stories of shelter, nourishment and help for the homeless,
stories of growth, overgrowth and disillusionment,
stories of crowds, travel and homecomings,
stories of separation, reunions, heartache and rejoicing,
stories of windowless openings that stand as a reminder of what once was,
stories of new windows to reflect Corktown splendor and revival,
stories upon stories upon stories of her majesty, Michigan Central Station!
The beauty that casts a shadow over Corktown and steals my heart every time.

Train station vanishing act
Aaron Balcom, Lincoln Park native, plans to make my favorite building disappear (and reappear) in a magic trick of mega proportions!!! At least, this is the talk on the town, no date has been set yet for this "Mega Illusion".

Aaron calls himself a Rock & Roll Illusionist . . .
I think I will have to see him make the train station disappear before I am a believer in his magic. I will hold my opinion about his abilities until then. He is rousing some attention for Metro Detroit and hopefully it will be positive attention. I hope people will not just be talking about all the ruins in the city that need to disappear, that would not be a positive.
