St. Patrick Senior Center, drawn from its recorded size and kind until a photo we may share turns up

St. Patrick Senior Center leads Coquard's work on record here, the building that opened in Detroit's Midtown in 1893. The Adolph N. Marion House, Detroit's Indian Village (1900), is the other Coquard work on record here.

Both of Coquard'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

Of everything Coquard designed here, St. Patrick Senior Center leads the list, a building in Detroit's Midtown, finished in 1893.

The record opens in 1893 with St. Patrick Senior Center, as Detroit's lumber, stove and shipbuilding money went into brick and stone, and closes in 1900 with the Adolph N. Marion House. In Detroit, Coquard's work stands in Indian Village and Midtown.

Both St. Patrick Senior Center and the Adolph N. Marion House still stand. To see Coquard's work in person, start with St. Patrick Senior Center at 58 Parsons St.
