Designer of the Clairwood Apartments, the building that went up in Detroit's Piety Hill in 1926.

The story

In Metro Detroit, Haughney's work on record is the Clairwood Apartments, a building in Detroit's Piety Hill, finished in 1926. Built during the boom years when the auto industry turned Detroit into one of the fastest growing cities in America, it has stood for 100 years.

The Clairwood Apartments still stands at 100 Clairmount Ave, and the best way to know Haughney is to stand in front of it.
