    Default Northwestern High School: Can You Identify the Buildings?

    Northwestern High School; Built 1911; Address 6300 Grand River

    Marr Elementary School; Built 1913; Address 6250 Grand River

    McMichael Middle School; Built 1917; Address 6230 Grand River

    Martindale Normal Training School; Built 1912; Address S. Grand Blvd near Grand River

    Question: In the attached photo [[from 1924), can anyone identify all the buildings that cluster around Northwestern?

    Also attached is a later [[1929) photo that shows, I believe, a connecting walkway between Northwestern and McMichael that was built in 1925.

    Default Correct

    These labels are correct for Northwestern, Marr and Martindale [[I'm not familiar with McMichael). The smaller building to the left of Marr is the power plant that was used by all the buildings in the complex.
