What would be the street boundaries for Dearborn's historic neighborhood[[s) ?
Here are the boundaries of the Ford Homes District, from its website:
Between January and May 1919 the Dearborn Realty and Construction Co. purchased 312 lots in the J.B. Molony Subdivision. The subdivision was bounded by the Michigan Central Railroad tracks, Military [[then Lapham),Nowlin and Monroe.
The Aviation Subdivision and Springwells Park neighborhood also have websites, but their boundaries weren't prominent. Maybe you could find them with a little more time. Dearborn also has an historic neighborhood around Oakwood-Monroe and Michigan, on both sides of Michigan. Lots of old homes and even a building [[Dearborn Records) that dates to the 1830s, and the old commandant's home across the street. But I don't know if it that area has a name.
