Frank W. Wiedmaier (1882-1965) was a Detroit architect who got his start during the city’s economic boom period after its rise as an industrial giant, a time when historic districts like Indian Village were popping up as upscale residential enclaves that appealed to the era’s early elite.
Wiedmaier’s work reflects the style, stature, and architectural pedigree that these residents were seeking, with revival-inspired designs like the William J. Schechter House at 1812 Burns in Indian Village showcasing his impressive massing and refined craftsmanship.
In short, the Schechter House perfectly exemplifies the enduring prestige and intentional design legacy that defines Indian Village – often considered one of the finest historic districts in all of Detroit.
