Images 3 & 4: “The Eighth Precinct Police Station is the second-oldest police building in Detroit. It was designed by Louis Kamper and built between 1900 and 1901, for a cost of $46,000. The station was originally built as part of the Second Precinct, but in 1910 was renumbered to become part of the Eighth Precinct. Starting in 1954, the Detroit Police Youth Bureau used the station as office space; the buildings were later used by the Detroit Police Personnel Division. In 2013, the building was converted to lofts, as part of the ongoing revitalization of Woodbridge.”

… In Woodbridge and the adjacent historical Woodbridge Farms, apartment houses and terraces (row houses) mingle with stately homes that were residences of upper-middle-class Detroiters…
Lovely house; shame a very nasty “lady” with an obnoxious and hyper-overreactive burglar alarm lives there. :(

“A mansard roof with original slate shingles is so rare,” Savage says. “Most of these houses have replacement roofs.” Other features include terra-cotta window hoods.
The Woodbridge/Woodbridge Farms neighborhood is named for William Woodbridge, who served as territorial Governor of Michigan (1839-41). Other noted residents included James E. Scripps, founder of The Evening News, which became The Detroit News; Ellen Scripps (James’ daughter), who married George Booth, founder of what became the College of Creative Studies and Cranbrook; and Detroit Tiger Ty Cobb.
My ‘hood rocketh!
