I believe that GPP had a VAlley Exchange... the VAlley Central office is located on St. Jean north of Jefferson in Detroit.

I used to work for Michigan Bell, and remember that the VAlley and TUxedo central offices were the first ones that were computerized.
I "lived in the Valley", VA-48535 - Jefferson & Alter Road area. Still had the prefix in the late 60's.
