I lived in Brush Park and still walk through it on the way to Tigers games. What's interesting about the handful of Victorian restorations is that there are large apartment buildings behind built around them, sometimes directly adjacent. When they were being restored there were green vacant lots around, within a couple of years they could be in the shadow of the new buildings. In walking through the neighborhood, I wondered if I'd move back there. I doubt it. It's still a bizarre city where there is very little downtown shopping, eerily quiet to walk around, almost no grocery stores. With the new bars and restaurants popping up, everyone said they wanted to live there, no-one I knew actually did it.
