There's some less than glamorous shots at the beginning, but it highlights a lot of downtown. Neat camera work and angles. Hadn't seen this posted before, but it's one of the better YouTube spotlights on the city that I've seen. Neato quote at the beginning, too. I hadn't read that one before.

I think the quote says, "There is gold in the hills of California. But my son, there is God in the alleys of Detroit."

The quote's a poem by Jackson Solo titled "There's Gold". I'd love to know if there's a story behind it. He's from Columbus.

Nice find Rhymeswithrawk. I took a lot of stills from some of the same area and caught holy hell from some of our "what’s your point" police, and some thumbs up from the more open minded. But it’s a great video, no doubt. Thanks for the link pal!
