My aunt and uncle live down the street from this house and were friends with the owners. I was inside it several times as a kid since my cousins were friends with their kids. It's beautiful inside and has "secret passageways" and servant stairways which, through a child's eyes, were SUPER cool!

I woke up every morning and saw this church out my livingroom window growing up in the 70's. We lived directly across the street from it. I think my love for architecture came from gawking at it every day. I LOVE this church!!!!!

Hello p69rrh51:

What can you tell me about this home on Windmill Pointe Drive in GGP? I have a photo from the street and a photo from the water [[Lake St. Clair). It was once owned by a famous Packard executive.

What would be the build date? Who is the architect? Who was the contractor? Any details would be helpful.

Thanks. Name: img641.jpg
