Corktown History: October 2014

http://corktownhistory.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html

October 20, 2014. Indian Trails and Woodward's Plan. Last Thursday, michiganradio.org published a story in answer to the question, " 8 Mile Road is eight miles from where? I love everything about the early urban planning history of Detroit and I was glad to see the subject come up in the local media. The essential answer given (that 8 Mile Road is eight miles from Campus Martius in downtown Detroit) is correct, but there were some inaccuracies in the piece that deserve correction. The main streets of the...

April 3, 2014. The Detroit Fire Department was called to the scene of a a fire at a vacant apartment building at 2628 Rosa Parks Boulevard in North Corktown in the early morning hours of April 2nd.

April 19, 2012. Roosevelt Park circa 1930s. Courtesy of the Burton Historical Collection, Detroit Public Library. The terminal was accessible by both streetcar and automobile, and therefore the owners felt that they had fulfilled their obligation to make it publicly accessible.

Detroit Urbanism: Radial Avenues Part V: Grand River

http://detroiturbanism.blogspot.com/2016/12/radial-avenues-part-v-grand-river.html

Tuesday, December 6, 2016. Radial Avenues Part V: Grand River. Burton Historical Collection, Detroit Public Library. Grand River Avenue, the fifth radial avenue to be extended from Detroit, was built to connect the city to the point where the Grand River flows into Lake Michigan. Like Gratiot Avenue, this road roughly follows the same angle as some of the avenues in Augustus Woodward's Plan of Detroit, but it was not actually built where any main avenue was planned. On December 15, 1825, the Michigan Ter...

Detroit Urbanism: Other Mounds in Metro Detroit

http://detroiturbanism.blogspot.com/2016/01/other-mounds-in-metro-detroit.html

Monday, January 4, 2016. Other Mounds in Metro Detroit. Although I have yet to discuss "urbanism," I'd like to write a little more about other Native American earthworks once located in Metropolitan Detroit. There were too many to fit into in my last entry. But their stories are an important part of our history. The first attempt to document all known Native American archaeological sites in the state was Wilbert Hinsdale's Archaeological Atlas of the State of Michigan. Hinsdale counted five mounds, inclu...

Detroit Urbanism: Radial Avenues Part I: Jefferson

http://detroiturbanism.blogspot.com/2016/06/radial-avenues-part-i-jefferson.html

Monday, June 27, 2016. Radial Avenues Part I: Jefferson. The arrangement of Detroit's main avenues, radiating from the center of the city like the spokes of a wheel, is often attributed to Augustus Woodward's Plan of Detroit, devised between 1805-1807. This is not completely accurate. When you compare today's radial avenues to early renditions of the Woodward Plan, it's clear that the two are not completely in sync. The first pieces of the radial system to be laid out (if only on paper) were one mile of ...

Monday, October 31, 2016. Radial Avenues Part IV: Gratiot. Like Woodward, West Jefferson, and Michigan Avenues, Gratiot Avenue was established in the early 19th century as a military road.
