hello.
i discovered the site last week and love it because i am a history buff.
i only lived in detroit for 2 years, from 1948 until 1950 when my folks moved from coplin & jefferson (next to the fire station) to roseville (frazho & gratiot).
i did work in the city for national bank of detroit from 1965 (part-time while still a junior at harper woods notre dame) until 1982 when mortgage operations were moved to troy at crooks (no comments required) & the i-75 exit, north of long lake.
from 1972 until 1995 i worked in the residential appraisal department and the east side was part of my territory covered. i got to see many of these neighborhoods go from respectable to uninhabitable.. such a shame.

My grandparents lived on Lawn, just off of Frazho, many moons ago. Had a huge lot behind the old Farmer Jacks. At least it seemed huge when I was little. |
