No, that is not a tourist destination.
That is a place of monsters.

Those look like some of the places I've run across deep in the Appalachian mountains, where I grew up.

I'm sure what we are all really wondering is...who's the cute blonde in the jean shorts?

I've heard it ranks as the largest tourist attraction in Michigan, in terms of people/year or $/year.
Tyree has a pretty interesting footprint around the city. You'll be driving around the near east side, still blocks from the epicenter, and see buildings with large dots. My current favorite piece of his is the yaweh house. For a while he was doing these paintings on car hoods. There's a nice one at the recycling center -- it just says "our hood" in his bold style. Although I might be fond of that just because I really dig the atmosphere at the recycling center -- last time I went they were blasting classical music, really loudly, at noon on a wednesday in a fairly dimly lit warehouse.) |

that top house is really architecturally pretty damn cool. I wish they had the money to restore those grand old houses.

Yeah, I love those old houses too.
I don't care for this 'art.' It reminds me of Crazy Mary's house. Story on this site, not quite halfway down the page. Dead People I Was Mean To. A friend and I drove by once in HS, and Crazy Mary was watching out her screen door. I never yelled anything at her, but you can't help but be curious. edit: I don't know if that's the real story. My mom, a lifelong resident of that town, didn't know either. I don't remember just toy cars, there were baby dolls and other toys hanging in the trees. |

And the desire. It seems the people that do have the money just want to tear them down and put up a cookie cutter McMansion. Odd shaped rooms, back staircases, and parapets, are the most wonderful places for children... of all ages.

There are a lot of similar houses all over Upstate New York. They are cool, beautiful, fuel wasters, and full of lead paint.

Why is Big Sarge looking out the window in the second pic?
Why is Big Sarge dangling from the eave of the turret in the first pic?
