Albert Kahn (1869-1942) was one of the most influential 20th century architects inΒ not just Detroit and the state of Michigan, but all of the United States.
A native of Germany, Khan is widely recognized as the father of modern industrial architecture thanks to his refined style and groundbreaking use of reinforced concrete in factory design, commercial landmarks, cultural institutions, and even upscale private residences for Detroitβs early elite.
In fact, he was so talented at blending classic design with modern innovation that he was often the architect of choice for many of Detroitβs most prominent families.
In Detroitβs Arden ParkβEast Boston Historic District, Kahn was commissioned to create the Francis H. Holt House at 250 E. Boston Blvd, a charming residence that stands as a model of his quality of work: quality materials, sophisticated symmetry, thoughtful craftsmanship, and an overall architectural richness youβll only find in Detroitβs most prestigious historic neighborhoods.
