Photo of Downtown Detroit from 1957

Andrew Norton

This is one of many great old photos that I am in the process of scanning from slides. An entire box of slides purchased at an estate sale has yielded a treasure trove of pictures from all over Michigan during the 1950s. I'll be posting many more as I get them scanned. For now, you can view them at the All Things Michigan Flickr page. I love all of the old cars and the colorful signage of this shot. However, I have no clue as to where in Detroit this would have been taken. I know the photo is from 1957 and the beautiful park might help determine a location.

Anyone have a guess as to where in Detroit this was taken?

SS Edmund Fitzgerald - LEGO model

Andrew Norton

Out of curiosity and a love of LEGO®, I ran a search on Flickr for anything that was built out of LEGO® and connected to Michigan. This was one of the models that stood out, and for good reason.

At 8 feet 6 inches long it is a huge LEGO® rendition of the SS Edmund Fitzgerald. Talk about details - this model even has the clamps (often mentioned as the cause of the Fitzgerald's demise) that hold down the hatch covers.

Detroit Tigers Opening Day 2010

Andrew Norton

It's an unofficial holiday in Detroit as the Detroit Tigers celebrate the return of baseball to Detroit with their Home Opener today at 1:05pm. This is a photo from the 2009 Home Opener.

2009 was an exciting (and disappointing as far as Game 163 goes) year for the Detroit Tigers and with the new additions of Johnny Damon, Jose Valverde, Max Scherzer, fellow rookies Austin Jackson & Scott Sizemore, Brad Thomas, and Phil Coke the 2010 season should be a good one as well.

Hotel Tuller, Detroit, Michigan early 1900s

Andrew Norton

The Hotel Tuller was the first hotel built in the Grand Circus district. The original construction of the hotel was completed in 1906 and included nine floors. Four floors were added in 1914 so that dates this photo from 1914 to 1920. Hotel Tuller was closed in 1976 and eventually demolished in 1992. Here is a look at the former Hotel Tuller's location today (marked by the number one)
