A hallmark of Nettleton & Kahn's domestic work were the elaborately carved porticos, which can be found on several homes throughout the area. The Headley residence is my favorite of these designs. #Detroit #NorthEndDetroit #JacobeanRevival #RenaissanceRevival #EnglishArchitecture #AlbertKahn #GeorgeWNettleton #NettletonandKahn #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhousesoldandnew #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter (at North End) https://www.instagram.com/p/CosTpwsvN9O/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Helen Newberry Nurses Home Address: 555/4147 John R. & 16/100 E. Willis Built: 1898 Architect: Nettleton & Kahn John Stoughton Newberry (1826-1887) was a highly successful industrialist and politician in the state of Michigan during the mid-to-late 19th century. When Mr. Newberry died, he left his estate to Helen, his widow, and daughters to fund various institutions and facilities throughout the state. Nettleton & Kahn, now practicing as a duo after the Alexander Trowbridge departed to become the dean of architecture at his alma mater, Cornell University, was commissioned to design a dormitory for nurses attending the Grace Hospital Training School for Nurses. The 3-story structure is an example of Jacobean Revival-style architecture. The Grace Hospital Training School was among the first institutions of its kind in the United States. Old Grace Hospital was located just across the street. In 2011, the building was converted into 21st century living, offering 28 loft units. The original lead windows on the ground floor were retained, the lobby restored and many of the original bricks were refurbished and reused during reconstruction. Another preservation success story. #Detroit #MidtownDetroit #DetroitMedicalCenter #JacobeanRevival #VictorianArchitecture #AlbertKahn #JohnR #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #TheMidwestival #IGersDetroit #IGersMidwest #detroit_igers #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter #TheAmericanHome (at Helen Newberry Nurses Home)

The Jacobean Revival residence of florist George Headley at 82 King Street, built in 1898, was designed by the firm of George W. Nettleton and a young Albert Kahn, both of whom were previously employed by the offices of Mason & Rice. The home is currently an adult care facility. #Detroit #NorthEndDetroit #JacobeanRevival #RenaissanceRevival #AlbertKahn #GeorgeWNettleton #NettletonandKahn #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhousesoldandnew #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter (at North End) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoiGOvov8ar/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

3040 East Grand Boulevard, located at the northeast corner of East Grand Boulevard and John R. was built in 1901 for Robert Lowe Robertson. Mr. Robertson was a successful stone contractor who worked on commissions such as the Hammond Building, Detroit's first skyscraper, and the Wayne County Building. The home was designed by the firm of George D. Mason & his former star pupil, Albert Kahn. Although the partnership was brief, it proved extremely fruitful. In addition to residences, Mason & Kahn were responsible for many notable Detroit landmarks, including The Palms Apartments on East Jefferson and Rivard, one of the first buildings in the United States to be constructed using reinforced concrete, as well as the Belle Isle Aquarium and Conservatory. During the city's music heyday in the '60s, the Robertson home was purchased by local musician Mike Hanks as the main offices for his label, D-Town Records. In more recent times, the property was the headquarters of New Center Realty, Inc. The Robertson home is a contributing property to the local Jam Handy/North End-East Grand Boulevard Historic District. #Detroit #NorthEndDetroit #JacobeanRevival #EnglishRenaissance #GeorgeDMason #AlbertKahn #MasonandKahn #EastGrandBoulevard #EastGrandBlvd #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #deserve2preserve #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter #SavingPlaces #GalaxyS10 #withGalaxy (at North End, Detroit) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxc56bhg5cu/?igshid=6pcr74aec49s
