Another Shorpy look at Detroit: 1916

[Whitehouse]

At least the building that replaced Pontchartrian still has a lot of class. Some class of the hotel rubbed off on it. I like it. I really hate the vacant lots of Cadillac building and Monroe.

Here's two more old photos taken in Detroit that appeared over the weekend on Shorpy:

Space Cadets: 1905
Bo Peeps: 1905

Both photos were taken on the steps of the Saints Peter and Paul Academy at 64 Parsons St. in Detroit. At that time, it was a co-ed grade school and a high school for girls. [source]
Perhaps one of your grandparents or their siblings are in those photos!
