Historic Photos of Detroit in the 50s, 60s, and 70s Institute for Jewish Spirituality Hooper reminds us that peopleIn 1950 Detroit was the fifth most populous city in the United States with 1. 8 million people living within its boundaries. Its downtown streets bustled with activity. Away from the city center, the neighborhoods were vibrant and active. By 1979, however, the Motor City had lost over one third of its residents. Factories, shops, and theaters closed down, businesses moved to the suburbs, neighborhoods began deteriorating, and crime was on the rise.
