William E. N. Hunter (1868–1947) was a Canadian architect who eventually relocated to Detroit at the turn of the century.

Heralded for his stunning ecclesiastical designs that can be seen all across the state of Michigan and even Ontario, the impact Hunter had on Detroit’s most prestigious residential neighborhoods is observable in historic districts like Arden Park-East Boston.

Here, you can find the following commissions of his:

·     The Charles H. Shaw House at 208 Arden Park Boulevard.

·     The Samuel J. Herman House at 647 Arden Park Boulevard.

·     The William Pardridge House at 144 E. Boston Boulevard.

These residences demonstrate Hunter’s quality craftsmanship, versatility, and lasting contribution to the elegant streetscapes that define Detroit’s most celebrated historic districts.
