Downtown
"One mile square, roughly. Traversed on foot in half an hour, or
glimpsed by a commuting motorist in about forty seconds. Acre
for acre and pound for pound, the constellation of architecture and
urban space within this tiny piece of real estate is among the
richest and most diverse on earth. Overlaid on now invisible
traces of Pleistocene terrain, ancient campfires, and
eighteenth-century forts is an urban geometry that seemingly expands
from Campus Martius with big-bang force."

Brush Park
"One
of Detroit’s oldest neighborhoods for the wealthy is reemerging from
nearly total abandon-ment and disintegration. The district was
developed in the 1870’s on farmland owned by the prominent Brush
family, with many of its streets named for family members (Alfred,
Edmund, etc.) Among early residents was J. L. Hudson, founder of the
eponymous department store. A rich variety of architectural styles
was represented, including those popular from the mid-nineteenth
century to about 1920. The Brush family developed their land
carefully, imposing restrictions on the type of houses that could be
built and insisting on what were then large lot widths of 50 feet.
The area filled in gradually as the city grew to the north, but by
1900 some residents were already moving away, drawn to the more
outlying districts of Indian Village to the east and Boston-Edison to
the north. Many of the mansions were then subdivided into apartments,
and commercial development replaced the elegant houses on Woodward
Avenue.
By the 1980’s many of the house still remaining were reduced
to see-through shells, reminiscent of post-war Europe. A rear-guard
action by urban pioneers and preservationists rescued some of the
mansions, but these actions were hard-pressed by serious social
challenges. Today, neo-traditional townhouses and senior citizen
housing, within walking distance of Comerica Park and Ford Field, are
bringing new life to this area."

Corktown
"Corktown
got its name from the thousands of Irish immigrants, most from County
Cork -- or at least embarking from Cork’s port town of Cobh -- who
filled up the near west side in the mid-nineteenth century. Some of
Corktown’s houses date back to the late 1830’s and are thus among the
oldest structures still standing in the city. Corktown contains one
of the only Federal-era houses in the city. The architecturally
unassuming little townhouse at 1430 Sixth Street was built about
1830. Styles range from simple frame cottages to more elaborate Queen
Anne houses and brick structures. After the Irish moved out,
immigrants from Malta and Mexico moved in. Urban renewal in the
1950’s, though, reduced the once sprawling district to a remnant
spanning just a few blocks. Many houses have been renovated in recent
years, and urban pioneers have added new townhouses and even a bed and
breakfast. Today, Corktowners remains proud of what they call
Detroit’s oldest neighborhood."

Eastern
Market
"Eastern Market is a lively commercial district comprised of several
dozen structures, including large open-air sheds and many two- and
three-story brick buildings with flat roofs and late Victorian
detailing. The market dates to 1870, when it was established as a hay
and wood market. The district was enlarged in 1921, and architectural
firms such as Smith, Hinchman, and Grylls contributed designs for
various buildings. Part of the district was sliced off by the
construction of the Chrysler Freeway in the 1960’s. Today, at its
market center, displays of fresh meats, fruits, flowers, and
vegetables all vie for attention. Shops, restaurants, and an
occasional street musician add to the overall scene."

Indian
Village
"When subdivided in 1894, Indian Village extended to the river and
maintained a Detroit tradition of building the most prestigious houses
on the main streets. Unfortunately, many of the larger houses
between the river and East Jefferson were later sacrificed for
gold-coast apartment complexes. With the first boom of the
suburbs in the years before World War II, many residents moved out,
and Indian Village was threatened with decline. Residents formed
the Indian Village Association in 1937 to enforce single-family zoning
and to resist the subdivision of mansions into apartments. Over
the years, the Association has succeeded in keeping Indian Village one
of Detroit’s finest neighborhoods. For our purposes, the Indian
Village area includes West Village as well as a few nearby
institutional resources of note. But it should be observed that
Indian Villagers are more precisely conscious, if not fiercely
protective, of their geographic identity."
