Indian Village: Detroit Historic Neighborhoods and Homes: Part 1

[@ladylena1918]

Beautiful homes! I'm sure no one will look back with respect at the McMansions being built today in a hundred years time.

[@jodyswan5863]

Early 1900’s the top Detroit executives, Lawyers, and Physicians built fancy homes in Indian Village.

The resale on these historic homes are crazy but people are willing to pay the extra price for the unique architectures I'd do the same I Love historic homes with modern insides

For almost ten minutes I was a teenager again. I was walking with my grandmother. I could smell the Honeysuckle waved to the Vernors and Betty Buick.

One of our friends rented one of these homes. One night all our girlfriends spent the night and we heard noises. She forgot to mention the house had bats!

Did y'all no that some of these house's we're used for the underground railroad! and them little black men holding them lantern's on the front of their lawns was a hiding spot for runaway slave's! and the home owners gave them shelter and food and they gave them horses too to escape during the night this district is very historic! and our family was raised on mack and Iroquois by.Ms. Franklin's Dairy Queen and it's still there!

Karl Greene ...how awesome.

[@LongListOfErrors]

Karl Greene great info thanks for sharing!

[@heyjohna]

Karl Greene But these homes were built after the turn of the century in the teens, twenties and thirties. The Civil War ended 60 years prior to these being built. I don’t see how could have been used as shelters?

Very Beautiful inside house Detroit now Awful still there empty anymore done !! I love it this house fall love but Sadly ..

[@kurtvantiem1901]

These are beautiful, but take a look at the mansions on Provencal. Access is restricted to residents. My parents lived in the apartment above the carriage house of the Smith Mansion when they were first married.

[@biancahotca3244]

Can these homes be visited, the inside and outside grounds?

[@martachorotynska476]

[@goutvols103]

[@ORIGINALREDY2MIX]

goutvols103 yes very much so

[@kennethbyer7725]

[@Offthbadan]

This is the Detroit that’s never shown. The blight seems to be what everyone wants to see.

[@1122slickliverpool]

Yes.

[@garyrichardson7592]

goutvols103 no they are laying down dummy this is not the only beautiful neighborhood in Detroit you just haven't seen it stop hating Esau

[@gloriahanes6490]

Why, oh why paint walnut wood white? A disgrace and a complete lack in taste and decorum, surely a historic home deserves to be restored to its original nature and utmost of care and complicity.

[@martachorotynska476]

What is this song in the background? .... shame, but I do not know whose composition

[@Itsaboutthewaterlife]

You're kidding. With a name like that you have to be kidding.
