I watched this on BBC a few days ago. The Story and history of Detroit in a full 1hr and 15 min documentary.

Just an intro I'm afraid. The full documentary is available here;

Quote:
For BBC Two, Cassian Harrison, Commissioning Executive for the BBC, said: "The story of Detroit is an extraordinary tale of boom and bust at the heart of the American Dream, stretching over an entire century."


Well worth a watch and the documentary does actually have an optimistic ending, depending on your point of view of course.
