The Packard Motor Company made automobiles in Detroit for decades and closed the doors of its manufacturing plant in 1958 after going bankrupt. Although the 95-building complex closed more than half a century ago, it’s still there (for now), decaying, captured in amber by photographer Elvin Wyly. The following slide show, set to music, evokes the feeling of a lost civilization—which is why photographer Camilo José Vergara has called Detroit the “American Acropolis.”
