Description

NEW Arcadia Publishing Detroit's Michigan Central Station, MI 9780738518817 Imag In 1913, the Michigan Central Station opened its majestic entrances to the people of Detroit.Designed by Warren & Wetmore and Reed & Stern, the firms also noted as the architects of the Grand Central Station in New York City, the depot was a marvel of grandeur and comfort for the traveler lucky enough to utilize its facilities. Soldiers went to war, families both separated and rejoined, and folks looking for an honest living in the Motor City all walked the Michigan Central's elegant corridors. Since the last train pulled away from the station in 1988, the structure has fallen prey to rapidly paced deterioration. Detroit's Michigan Central Station captures the glory of the Michigan Central and its environs. Using photographs from the Burton Historical Collection, as well as private collections, the book illustrates the use of the Michigan Central Station by a city whose story dramatically parallels that of this magnificent structure. The book also includes imagined futures of the station from some of the many people who have been inspired by the magic this grand building continues to exude.

  1. Great find of this older book in new condition! Pricing was very fair and free shipping was a great bonus! However, shipping speed could have been a bit better. There was also a sticker on the shipping box indicating what the item was and since it was intended as a gift, that was a bit tricky. Overall though, no issues with the seller and I would buy from them again. Highly recommended!
