Place Promo/ SHPO, Detroit Urban Conservation Project, 1976

[Stosh]

I was directed to this project today. I'm sure this has been posted here before, but I can't find it anymore. I have viewed a few pictures here now and again, but never saw the entire project until today. This is possibly a work of one of the universities in the area originally, although I can't find any reference to it anywhere.

As a digital snapshot of neighborhoods and business areas in 1976, I believe this is a valuable resource for the region.

The digitizing by place promo is kind of small, but it's enough to get the general idea of certain things. the link is:

Select Detroit, in the search box where it says city. You can search by street name as well. Have fun.
