Description

Back cover of a brochure for Central Park Plaza, which features a map of the area. Designed by the architectural firm of Giffels and Rosetti, Central Park Plaza offered "every convenience for easier, finer living." The majority of residents displaced by Central Park Plaza's construction could not afford to move into the apartment complex. Situated near the Mies van der Rohe-designed Lafayette Park, the apartments were built in 1963 and still house Detroit residents today. c. 1962. Carl Almblad Papers, Box 12, Folder 42.
