The city's plan to cheaply auction off vacant homes has clearly resonated beyond Detroit. Over 1,000 people descended upon East English Village yesterday afternoon for a tour of the twelve properties. Families wandered the sidewalks between open houses, mingling with residents happy to show off their neighborhood.
Every auction property seemed to contain a dozen people peering into closets and basements, figuring out exactly what needed to be fixed.
