More than 5 years later, finally made it back to 17385 Parkside, although the conditions were a bit different this go 'round. #Detroit #Westside #NorthwestDetroit #UniversityDistrictDetroit #TudorRevival #GothicRevival #EnglishArchitecture #DavidRuffin #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter (at University District) https://www.instagram.com/p/CW9yQR0rAKU/?utm_medium=tumblr

17385 Parkside, located in the resplendent University District, was built in 1925 and features one of the greatest entrances of any single-family home you'll find. It's most famous occupant was none other than David (born Davis) Eli Ruffin (1941-1991), co-lead singer of the "Classic Five" era Temptations from 1964 to 1968. "Ruff", as he was known, flexed his raspy, acrobatic tenor on such cultural touchstones such as "My Girl", "Ain't Too Proud To Beg", "(I Know) I'm Losing You", "I Wish It Would Rain", just to name but a paltry few. Ruffin resided here 1970 to 1983. On June 21, 2019, the stretch of Parkside between Six (McNichols) & Seven Mile Roads was renamed David Ruffin Avenue in an unveiling ceremony. #Detroit #Westside #NorthwestDetroit #UniversityDistrictDetroit #TudorRevival #GothicRevival #EnglishArchitecture #DavidRuffin #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter (at University District) https://www.instagram.com/p/CWXMIE7LCzN/?utm_medium=tumblr

In the early years of the 20th Century, John H. Kunsky (1875 - 1952) built a movie palace empire in Detroit, with the help of noted theater architect, C. Howard Crane. Beginning with the Columbia Theatre (1911), which was located on Monroe Avenue, the heart of the city's original theater district. When that district moved further north to Grand Circus Park, Kunsky called upon Crane to design a slew of grand houses of cinema; the Madison, the Adams, which was housed in the Louis Kamper-designed Fine Arts Building, the Capitol (now the Detroit Opera House), the Michigan and the State (Fillmore), just to name a few. Grand Circus Park, for a time, became known as "Kunsky's Circle." When it was time for Kunsky's own home in Palmer Woods, Kunsky stayed with Crane. The result is a fanciful, theatrical, if you will, example of a half-tumbered cottage. The interior is full of delights too, such as a Jacobean-carved stone fireplace in the living room and hand-carved rosewood paneling. Crane's residential commissions may not be as well-known, but in my opinion, this ranks among his best work. It's my personal favorite in PW, which is saying much. #Detroit #NorthwestDetroit #PalmerWoods #TudorRevival #TudorCottage #CottageStyle #ArtsandCraftsArchirecture #EnglishArchitecture #CHowardCrane #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter (at Palmer Woods) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTbVPGXMaTF/?utm_medium=tumblr

The Dexter-Linwood neighborhood is full of great homes worthy of rehabilitation, like this little gem of a Tudor Revival on Calvert. #Detroit #Westside #NorthwestDetroit #DexterLinwood #TudorRevival #EnglishArchitecture #HalfTimbered #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #TheAmericanHome #houseportrait #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter #SavingPlaces (at Dexter-Linwood) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVMdDIqDbZj/?utm_medium=tumblr
