Thomas B. Coughlan was a late 19th-century/early 20th-century Detroit architect who rose to prominence during the city’s flourishing residential development period.
His work is a showcase of his commitment to quality, revival-style design: balanced symmetry, sturdy brickwork, and refined details that communicate stability and social standing in equal measure.
His architecture defines some of Detroit’s most prestigious neighborhoods, with the Edward Bland House at 1049 Seminole one of the best living examples of Coughlan’s distinguished architectural character.
Think:
- Charming yet dignified façades
- Quality materials
- Elegance conveyed through scale rather than excess
Though not as widely known as some of Detroit’s architectural giants, Coughlan’s work reinforces the core identity of Indian Village — a district built by consistently skilled designers who delivered lasting prestige at every address.
