Spent several hours wandering around Detroit this weekend.
Just on the corner of Woodward and Warren are some amazing places!
|
Hecker Mansion |
|
Inns on Ferry Street - the "inn" consists of 5 houses in a row |
|
Josephine Ford Sculpture Garden in front of the Creative Center |
|
Detroit Institute of Arts - Rodin's Thinker is out front |
|
Detroit Public Library |
|
Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History |
|
Detail on the Maccabees Building |
|
Park Shelton Art Nouveau Building |
|
Patterns of Detroit Mural - Look! A Quilt! |
|
Scarab Club |
|
Freer House - once the home of the Peacock Room |
I'm not saying all of Detroit is like this... but you don't have to look far to see remnants of its Golden Age!
