What is the name of the cross street in this photo from 1966?

I remember Broadway in the 60's - worked at Hudson's and got sandwiches at the Broadway Market - but does anyone remember that supermarket in the parking structure across the street? I seemed like a full-size supermarket like any A&P of that era. Some people from work would get their groceries there before picking up their cars and driving home to the suburbs. I also had some friends who lived in a small apartment house near Madison and Brush [[across from the Music Hall) who shopped there. Any chance of a new supermarket that close to the center of town? It could change a lot of people's attitudes toward living downtown if they didn't have to drive to shop at a real supermarket.

The view is roughly this one:



But just a little over to the right, so you can just see the signs that hung from the storefronts on the west side of Broadway. And the lens that was used distorts the distances, making the building on the right [[which I believe is the Merchant's Building at Broadway and Grand River, not the Harvard Square Building) appear closer than it really is.

I used to walk this landscape and I find it sad to see it so barren.

Right you are, EastsideAl! It's the Merchant's Building, which sits north of The Harvard Square Building. Thanks for the correction!!

What year was the Broadway market destroyed by fire? My mind says 1961, but I might be wrong.
