Tree seedlings grow on the turf of the Pontiac Silverdome in Pontiac, Mich. The 80,000-seat indoor stadium hosted the Super Bowl, the NBA finals, the World Cup, Wrestlemania and concerts by Elvis Presley, Led Zeppelin and the Rolling Stones. Nowadays, the venue is a shell of its former self with its roof in tatters and a lack of electrical power that has left the stadium’s innards dark and mold-covered. The Silverdome’s current owner is determined to cash in before it’s too late, putting everything inside up for auction starting on Wednesday, May 21. (AP Photo/Carlos Osorio)

FILE--In this Oct. 12, 2006 file photo, Detroit's skyline is shown. The historic restructuring of Detroit through bankruptcy is taking a crucial step by putting its plan before the people most affected: roughly 30,000 retirees and city employees. Monday, May 12, 2014 was the deadline for ballots to have been sent to those who qualify for pensions, and should be arriving by mid-week. Detroit is proposing to cut pensions by 4.5 percent and eliminate cost-of-living payments. Retired police officers and firefighters have a better deal that trims only the cost-of-living payments.
