William H. Van Tine (1856) was a Detroit architect who was active during the city’s major boom in growth during the early 20th century, contributing quality residential designs to several of its most upscale neighborhoods.
Van Tine’s architectural style often combined traditional influences with the understated elegance loved by Detroit’s rising class of automotive, business, and civic professionals.
His work blended in seamlessly with other architect-designed homes, exuding status in elite enclaves like Indian Village, where you can find his commission, the George M. Holley House at 2152 Burns, which he designed for the Holley family (a surname synonymous with automotive-era advancement).
The property is a perfect reflection of Tine’s ability to craft stately, distinguished domestic residences featuring solid proportions, quality brickwork, and sturdy façades that fit right in within historic districts like Indian Village, where craftsmanship and prestige remain defining characteristics.
