The Balmoral, located at 361 Covington Drive, is a 4-story, brick and limestone Art Moderne apartment complex built in 1937. It, along with its neighbor, The Fairlane, were designed by local architect Robert West, responsible for several buildings in the district. According to historical records, The Balmoral was the first in Palmer Park to have corner casement windows, which became very fashionable beginning in the ‘30s. #Detroit #NorthwestDetroit #PalmerPark #ArtDeco #ArtModerne #Modernism #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #ModMondayz #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter (at Palmer Park Apartment Building Historic District) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_L2u1sj1tO/?igshid=65dt2p9mp8ri

The Merton Manor at 361 Merton Road in Palmer Park was built in 1928 and designed by Jacob I. Weinberg. It is a 4-story, Tudor Revival building featuring crenellations at the roofline, giving it the appearance of an old English castle, as well as half-timbering trim and other embellishments. Weinberg designed several similar apartment buildings throughout the city, including the Kingston Apartments (296 East Grand Boulevard). #Detroit #Westside #NorthwestDetroit #PalmerPark #TudorRevival #ArtsandCraftsArchirecture #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #deserve2preserve #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter #SavingPlaces (at Palmer Park Apartment Building Historic District) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4OEG5mFPnb/?igshid=128w1v8xiipfg

Built in 1885, this rustic log cabin was the summer residence for Senator Thomas Witherell Palmer (1830-1913) and his wife, Elizabeth Merrill Palmer (1838-1916), or Lizzie. Mrs. Palmer, tired of the hustle and bustle of city life, longed to live as people did in the early days. Mr. Palmer had inherited a few acres of land along Woodward Avenue from his grandfather, James Witherell, 3rd Supreme Court judge of the Michigan Territory. Senator Palmer presented his wife with plans for the log cabin. Apparently, Mrs. Palmer asked for the home to be built. She had lived in brick, stone and sided homes, but never a log cabin. Designed by Mason & Rice, the 2-story structure is actually a balloon-framed Victorian home wrapped in an oak log vaneer. The Palmers furnished their summer retreat with heirlooms and artifacts reminiscent of the "old days", including James Witherell's 1787 mahogany grandfather clock, a flintlock pistol above the mantle, elk antlers over the front door, family paintings and portraits of U.S. Presidents and many more priceless treasures. In 1893, Senator Thomas W. Palmer donated 140 acres of land to the city to be used as a public park, with the only condition being that the woods remain untouched. The log house was packaged in the deal. Palmer wanted the park to be known as Log Cabin Park. However, in 1897, the Common Council unanimously voted to rename the area Palmer Park. #Detroit #NorthDetroit #PalmerPark #LogCabin #VernacularArchitecture #VictorianArchitecture #MasonandRice #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter (at Palmer Park Log Cabin) https://www.instagram.com/p/CT5akqpPFJE/?utm_medium=tumblr
