Detroit's famed Soup Kitchen Saloon, closed in 1999, the victim of a controversial casino riverfront plan. Thought to have been the oldest bar in the city (circa 1850), the Soup Kitchen had been home to a roster of legendary names in music, both local and national, since its rebirth as Detroit's Home of the Blues in 1974.
Abandoned, and after several fires, the Soup Kitchen Saloon was demolished in 2006.
