The story
The house at 1111 Seminole St went up in 1906, during the boom years when the auto industry turned Detroit into one of the fastest growing cities in America.
It carries the name of Mary Holland.
The plans came from Rogers & MacFarlane.
Today it sits inside Indian Village, one of the blocks Detroit has chosen to protect.
Most homes like it are lived in, so enjoy it from the sidewalk.
