I could be wrong but that looks like the long abandoned train station in Detroit.

Thats the train station.

Subject of much controversy. Maroon owns it for some reason, and he's been sort of nursing it along, but not doing anything with it. He's a (strange) billionaire.

2015 will be the 50th Anniversary of the Electra Glide.
I wonder if they will celebrate it with a special edition model.
