Still
standing today the church continues on while the Jeffries
Housing comes to an end.
Jeffries
Project
Built
to create low cost housing, at the same time many nearby beautiful
19th Century homes were falling into ruin, the Jeffries Project
quickly evolved into an impersonal, crime ridden environment.
Poorly managed, it became largely vacated as residents opted
for the surfeit of low costs homes and apartments left in wake
of the mass suburbanization of Detroit.
