William A. Fisher House, drawn from its recorded size and kind until a photo we may share turns up

Designer of the William A. Fisher House, the house that was built in Detroit's Boston Edison in 1916. The Frank Gorman House, Detroit's Palmer Woods (1926), is the other P. work on record here.

Both of P.'s works on record, oldest at left. None has a height on record, so each is drawn at one standard size in the shape of its kind.

The story

Frazer John P. was born in 1884 and died in 1972. Of everything P. designed here, the William A. Fisher House leads the list, a house in Detroit's Boston Edison, finished in 1916.

A span of 10 years separates the William A. Fisher House (1916) from the Frank Gorman House (1926), the first and last of P.'s works here. Both the William A. Fisher House and the Frank Gorman House still stand.

In Detroit, P.'s work stands in Boston Edison and Palmer Woods. The William A. Fisher House at 111 Edison St is a good first stop for anyone tracing P.'s buildings.
