p69rrh51, thank you for posting the pictures of the Frederick Fisher House on Arden Park. It is, IMO, perhaps the most beautiful house in metro Detroit.
For many years, decades actually, it was owned by Dr. & Mrs. Dewitt Burton. Whenever I would drive down Arden Park in the evening, I would slow down so I could look at their front door with its beautifully crafted wrought iron grillwork. But even more importantly, to me, was to look through the glass to the stair hall [[which they kept lit) so I could see the staircase with its velvet rope swagging down the wall. It is, to me, the most elegant architectural feature in Detroit.
Again, thank you for posting these pictures.
