Detroit Bowling Alleys

[jcole]

Found a history of St Hedwigs on the web; answered a couple of my own questions.

In 1919, the Parish began building a large, three story school with a basement on St. Hedwig Street. On the first and second floors were to be sixteen large classrooms. The third floor was finished off as a eight lane bowling alley.

On September 15, 1945, Fr. Callistus Winiarz was appointed pastor. During his term, which lasted until 1951, the Parish hall was modernized and the lower church was remodeled. He also put rubber on the kneelers in the upper church. The bowling alley was modernized at a cost of $7,881.

Looks like 2 three story schools still on the property. Wonder if the alley is still there?
