  • Nisbett Building and Fairman Building Rehabilitation Projects
    Historic Preservation in HistoricMichigan Preservation Big Rapids Housing Commission and Hollander Development Nisbett Building and Fairman Building Rehabilitation Projects Nisbett Building The Big Rapids Housing Commission, responding to increasing demand for high quality affordable housing, recognized that a downtown location offered potential residents a broader and more accessible service base than more suburban locations while expanding Fairman Building the market for downtown merchants. The commission partnered with Hollander Development to rehabilitate the Nisbett and Fairman Buildings, located in the heart of Big Rapids. By combining a wide variety of public and private funding with the federal and state historic preservation tax credits, the development team was able to make this combined $5.2-million-dollar investment possible. The projects created 47 new residential units, 38 of which are guaranteed to be affordable units; rehabilitated nearly 126,000 square feet of under- utilized commercial space; and created outdoor space for the use of the residents. The partnership between the Big Rapids Housing Commission and Hollander Development demonstrates that creativity is the key to reinvigorating communities. Historic Preservation in HistoricMichigan Preservation Eric, Tobi and Ryan Breisach 714 Wheaton Avenue, Kalamazoo, State TaxCredit Project The house at 714 Wheaton Avenue was built in 1891 and modified in 1950 by removing the front porch and building an enclosed stair addition to convert the resource to a triplex rental. The interior’s historic character suffered from the installation of false ceilings, inappropriate materials that covered plaster walls and floors, and water damage. Eric and Ryan Breisach, the father and son construction crew, hired a local contractor to help them finish a complete rehabilitation of the resource during the summer and fall of 2003.

  • Moving Forward at the Detroit Historical Society!
    1 WINTER 2018 Moving Forward at the Detroit Historical Society! At the Detroit Historical Society, 2017 has been a time of transformation. Three years of work on Detroit 67: Looking Back to Move Forward came to fruition this year, and the efforts that went into it led us to adopt a new model for engaging the public in creating programming and exhibitions in our museums. Our work is stronger for it, as evidenced by positive reviews, awards and steady increases in visitor numbers driven by the Detroit 67: Perspectives exhibition. Most importantly, however, our organization changed from the inside out. Our model for engagement, Engage, Refect, Act (ERA), incorporates a three-step process for commencing work on new programs and exhibitions at our museums: engage the community, refect on what we learn and inspire visitors to action based on the relevance of history to today. We are committed to applying this model internally and externally as we work to tell Detroit’s stories and why they matter. That means that we are engaging the talents of our staff across departments to strengthen and streamline our work in the same way that we are engaging the public and other cultural institutions to inform upcoming programs and exhibits. In October, the Detroit Historical Society and our partners at the Detroit Institute of Arts and the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History were honored with the Michigan Museum Association’s 2017 Peninsulas Prize in recognition of our unique collaboration on the Detroit 67 project. This was wonderful evidence of the transformational power of the ERA model.

  • For Immediate Release Dso Celebrates Conclusion of Orchestra Hall Centennial with Unveiling of Artist Ken Aptekar's I Hear An
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE DSO CELEBRATES CONCLUSION OF ORCHESTRA HALL CENTENNIAL WITH UNVEILING OF ARTIST KEN APTEKAR’S I HEAR AN ECHO Commissioned by Gary L. Wasserman & Charles A. Kashner in honor of DSO President and CEO Anne Parsons, painting will remain on display in the William Davidson Atrium of the Max M. and Marjorie S. Fisher Music Center Detroit, (October 26, 2020) – On Friday, the Detroit Symphony Orchestra (DSO) unveiled a new work by celebrated artist Ken Aptekar titled I hear an echo (2020). The painting, which references Orchestra Hall’s opening in 1919 and DSO’s then-music director Ossip Gabrilowitsch, was commissioned by Gary L. Wasserman & Charles A. Kashner as a tribute to the Orchestra Hall centennial and in honor of DSO President and CEO Anne Parsons. The unveiling ceremony took place on Orchestra Hall’s 101st birthday, Friday, October 23 at 6:30 p.m. for a small number of socially distanced guests in the William Davidson Atrium of the Max M. and Marjorie S. Fisher Music Center (The Max), where the painting will remain on display and viewable through the DSO’s front doors on Woodward Avenue. This partnership exemplifies the DSO’s collaborative spirit and shared vision for combining and supporting arts, artists, and culture of all kinds at The Max. The ceremony also featured a performance by DSO Acting Concertmaster Kimberly Kaloyanides Kennedy. Born and raised in Detroit, Aptekar is the son of art and music educators and credits the DSO and the Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA) as “keys to who [he] became as an artist.” He grew up attending DSO concerts at the orchestra’s then home of Ford Auditorium under music director Paul Paray, but heard DSO recordings from Orchestra Hall and longed to experience the outstanding acoustics firsthand.

Completed in 1928, the Fisher brothers spared no expense in the building’s construction, which is evidenced by the spectacular frescos, mosaics, marble and brass work adorning its surfaces. The Platform is reactivating the Fisher brothers’ original vision in a way that resonates with current and future residents of the City. The intent is to develop a fully occupied and upgraded Class A retail, office and entertainment destination that marries the historic and modern. More than $10 million has been invested into “Detroit’s Largest Art Object” since 2016, providing heating and cooling in the three-story Arcade, restoring its hand painted ceilings and installing new elevators. In 2020, The Platform initiated a new phase of restoration focused on the Fisher Building facade. Its 325,000 square feet of marble is being surveyed to determine the best way to preserve its integrity and beauty for generations to come.
