I wonder where they went… #abandoned #googlemaps #detroit #house

I googled my old home address on the google out of curiousity and well its been a while since I last visit it (we moved out quite some time ago), what I didn't expect to see is there, would be my mom in the picture watering her flowers. Its been over 10 years since she passed away yet seeing her in an online platform make me feel like its all a dream, that she still alive and right here with me. I had fever and kept seeing her in my dream for a few weeks after that. I miss her terribly, I wish she's doing well up there.


Edit: Thank you so much everyone for all the love and support, I'm sorry it takes some time for me to respond back as this is not my main account. Also, to clarify the situation, I searched my home address quite some time ago, few years back perhaps. I saw this short on my fyp and thought "Ah, I used to search it back then too". Right after I saw this short I did try to search it again and unfortunately the photos has been updated. I'm sorry if my post put anyone in sad feeling, its not my intention so. I just wanted to tell that time is fleeting, and to always create memories with your loved ones and to not live in regret because life has so much for you :)

This is what I'm really afraid of. The present will just be a memory someday.

Edited after a year...
My older brother died 6 months ago. Back when I commented here, he was told that he'd only last for 6 months. I remember we were just having a good time and he's laughing in front of me, if only I could stop the time when he was still alive, I would. But yea nothing lasts forever

good ending: they moved into their dream home and are living their best lives rn

Man i cried.. I have had my best friend who ran away from his abusive household and I never seen him again.. and then I had to move away because of work. I went to google maps and saw us having fun in the front yard like we always did and this just reminded me of that time.

For anyone wondering, Their roof began to sag causing it to collapse so they moved out, and 2-4 years later it collapsed and was demolished

This made me go look at my own childhood home. My dad is there, working on the roof. He isn't dead or anything but it's comforting

We lost our beloved labrador retriever in 2018. For 3 years google maps would show her happily sitting on our terrace. The image was updated when our street had some major roadwork done. I miss her.

This video hits different. It shows how everything in life is temporary and nothing lasts. It’s an incredible feeling.
Or just me.

it makes me feel *uneasy* thinking why they moved out or rather *what* made them move in such a hurry... that second clip where the house is empty with stuff outside. messy. and something inside the house.. still lurking

My dad that passed away in 2015 was able to be seen waving at the car outside our house for a couple of years. They’ve since updated it and it hurt when I saw that. I miss him.

[Bonelessduh]

it's really sad how a place you can make so many good memories at just dissapears

[thetarotclinic]

My dad passed away 2 years ago. A few months after his passing we were looking at google maps and there's my dad riding a motorcycle, 100m from our house. Now they've updated the maps so he's no longer there 🥲

This makes me kinda sad when you think about it. That plot of land was someones house and it had someones memory of it growing up as a child. Someone called it home and worked hard to keep it just for it to vanish like that. Someone had to plan and build that, put effort, money and time into it. Something that we call home, our safe space and somewhere where we can have full privacy, somewhere away from others, something that has value to us just ripped to peices without a second thought about it just to be an empty bit of land, unused by anyone.

Just the other day I went to my childhood home for the first time in nearly a decade since the house went into foreclosure during my dad dying of leukemia. The new owners took good care of it, barely anything changed, and our old mailbox still sits there with my mom and dad's name on it. Happy tears were shed.

I hope nothing sinister is behind these photos. I really truly hope it was just them moving to a better place, all healthy and still together or in contact. Thats what im choosing to believe since this really hit home for some reason…

My uncle passed away suddenly a couple of months ago. When my aunt was looking for a funeral home, she came across one and decided to look at the google map photos to see if she liked it. My Uncle who passed, was a landscaper, and he was in the photo of the funeral home tending to the bushes.

Tbh I go to Michigan a LOT and I I think I've actually driven by that plot a few times on the way to my grandparents house

[RyleyChaisson]

I searched up the address of my bands studio and I didn’t expect to see me and my four friends all sitting on the rooftop together. I cried because two of my friends died. We were all looking up as if we knew in a blink of an eye two of us would end up there.

Takes “Can’t have shit in Detroit” to another level

Moral of the story, never stare at the google car.
