The story

By Victoria Jackson, Editor in Chief Updated October 25, 2026

The work that leads Hess & Raseman's record here is Trumbull Avenue Presbyterian Church, a church in Detroit's Woodbridge, finished in 1888.

Hess & Raseman's Metro Detroit work on record runs from 455-459 Alfred House in 1888 to the Municipal Court Building in 1889. No decade kept Hess & Raseman busier here than the 1880s, with 3 works.

In Detroit, Hess & Raseman's work stands in Brush Park and Woodbridge. The region has lost the Municipal Court Building from Hess & Raseman's record. 455-459 Alfred House and Trumbull Avenue Presbyterian Church still stand. Anyone tracing Hess & Raseman's work can begin at 455-459 Alfred House at 455-459 Alfred St and follow the map from there.
