The story

The house at 213 W. Huron St went up in 1858, when Michigan was still a young state of farms, mills and river landings.

The style is Greek Revival, and the details still show it.

Most homes like it are lived in, so enjoy it from the sidewalk.

The Dr. Henry K. Foote House is a single-family home located at 213 West Huron Street in Milford, Michigan, U.S. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
