^Interesting blog post, but Southwest Detroit Historical Society?
Did anyone else notice the building near Gratiot and Russell that was just demolished? It was north of Gratiot, east of Russell. Just south of Germack's.
Victory Way Assembly Church of God at Vancourt and Tireman.
I've noticed work on 4 Palmer Park apartment buildings lately, not including LaVogue Square. So glad to see it!

The Oakwood Heights fire station I posted a photo of in post #268 has been destroyed by fire. Here is a quick before and after.
