Woodward became to it's worse state in the middle 90s when most of the businesses had closed and storefronts formed a wall of boarded windows. Winklemans was the last clothing retail to leave Woodward in the late 90s. I didn't know that Dress Barn remained in the downtown area until around 2004. Woodward was a destination for shopping and banking until the late 90s. It's becoming a destination of small offices, restaurants with bars in them, residential, and the unknown

Don't know where you lived in the 90s but I do not recall downtown Woodward being any type of "destination for shopping" back then.

Interesting. This is news to me. Maybe in the early 80s with Hudson's?
