The famous Uniroyal Tire was built for the 1964 World’s Fair in New York City.  In 1966, it was disassembled and placed in its current location in Allen Park, along I-94.

2 things:

1. i drive by this all the time, and it reminds me of my childhood.  i used to live with my cousins at times growing up, mostly in the summer, and they lived off of 94, whereas i grew up off of 75.  i remember driving past the uniroyal tire, which truly is fucking huge.  at night it is a brilliantly lit sign of detroit.  i now live off of 94, and i drive by it constantly.  it makes me miss growing up. 

2. this is one of my favorite new blogs.  i live in detroit, and i love detroit. 

Being from West Michigan, my family didn’t make it to Detroit very often, usually only for a Tigers game every couple years.  Since the first trip I remember, this gigantic tire became how I recognized we were almost to The D.  I still get excited driving by it on the way from Ann Arbor to Detroit.

Ro Spit “Renaissance State Of Mind (Feat. Monica Blaire)”

Ro spits, hence the name, so he put a spin on Hov’s Empire State of Mind.

Good shit!

Every time I heard the original, the line “And since I made it here, I can make it anywhere” always made me think about The D.
