Indicate whether the property has historic integrity.) ______________________________________________________________________________ Summary Paragraph The Reeber Building is located at 3363 Michigan Avenue, Detroit, Wayne County, Michigan. Situated on the west side of the city, the building is a two-story commercial building designed in the Late Victorian architectural style and constructed of masonry. The building is trapezium- shaped in plan, with its façade angled to meet the angle of Michigan Avenue as it radiates westward from the center of the city. The first floor is separated into two storefronts by a brick wall that runs the length of the building, the larger occupying two-thirds of the first floor on its eastern side. Historically, the second floor contained residential space but division of this area is no longer clearly defined as a result of a previous attempt at rehabilitation and a collapse of the roof into the second floor interior space. The first-floor entrances, storefronts, and all but two of the second-floor windows are now covered by wood boards and plywood. The second-story window openings are round-arch with repeating stone mouldings set below a series of decorative dental and stepped brick courses under a decorative brick cornice. A brick parapet surrounds the flat roof and six stone caps accentuate the top of decorative pilasters running the entire height of building. The face brick shows evidence of painting, including faded signage for “The Reeber Furniture Co.” The building has undergone two major alterations since its construction in 1887, occurring in 1894 and 1899. The property is in poor condition, with the roof, second floor and rear elevation having collapsed due to years of disuse and the impacts of scrapping and water infiltration. Mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems and accessories have been removed or are unusable due to exposure to water, scrapping or age. The rear alley-facing brick elevation and roof have collapsed, as well as portions of the second floor interior floor and walls. ______________________________________________________________________________ Section 7 page 4 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service / National Register of Historic Places Registration Form NPS Form 10-900 OMB No. 1024-0018 Reeber Building Wayne County, Michigan Name of Property County and State Narrative Description Setting The Reeber Building is a two-story commercial building located at 3363 Michigan Avenue, Detroit, Wayne County, Michigan. The building stands one parcel east of the southeast corner of Michigan Avenue and Twenty-Third Street two miles from downtown Detroit, west of the Corktown and south of the Chadsey Condon neighborhood, both historically ethnic, and now working-class enclaves of the city. The building footprint sits at the northern lot line, bounded by Michigan Avenue to the north and the public alley to the south, abutting the Grosfield Building at 3365 Michigan Avenue on the western elevation. Michigan Avenue is a seven-lane roadway running west from downtown Detroit to Chicago and beyond. It is a spoke of Augustus B. Woodward’s plan for the city’s major traffic arteries, inspired by the plan for Washington, DC, created by Pierre L’Enfant, and implemented in 1806 after a disastrous fire ravaged the downtown a year earlier. Michigan Avenue intersects with Twenty-Third Street which ends one block south of Michigan Avenue at Risdon Street, closed at that point to accommodate both large-scale industrial and commercial operations and the Michigan Central Railroad tracks. South of the rail line Twenty-Third Street reopens to traffic ultimately terminating at Riverside Park along the Detroit River. North of Michigan Avenue Twenty-Third Street ends at McGraw Avenue on the city’s northwest side. Also commonly known as US-12, Michigan Avenue originates at Campus Martius, near the center of downtown Detroit, and stretches west past the city limits to New Buffalo at the southwest corner of the state where it continues beyond Michigan on its east-west trajectory. In 2004, US-12 was formally designated a Historic Heritage Route by the Michigan Legislature, and commemorated the avenue as “among the oldest road corridors east of the Mississippi

  • Twilight: Gods” in Detroit
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT Oct.. 9, 2020 Erica Hobbs 517.677.9453 [email protected] Yuval Sharon and Michigan Opera Theatre Announce Additional Performance of Sold-out “Twilight: Gods” in Detroit Oct. 21 DETROIT, Oct. 9, 2020 – In light of overwhelming demand, Michigan Opera Theatre (MOT) has announced an additional performance of Gary L. Wasserman Artistic Director Yuval Sharon’s “Götterdämmerung” adaptation, “Twilight: Gods.” The Oct. 21 performance will join the previously-announced Oct. 17, 18, and 20 performances that sold out within 32 hours of the first announcement. A limited number of tickets for “Twilight: Gods” will be available to the general public for purchase online beginning at noon on Monday, Oct. 12. Tickets are $79 per car. “The unprecedented demand for tickets to this unique opera presentation in the Detroit Opera House Parking Center serves as an early indication of the public’s response to the new and engaging creativity that Yuval Sharon brings to MOT and our community,” says MOT President and CEO Wayne S. Brown. Conceived and directed by Sharon, “Twilight: Gods” is a site-specific adaptation of Richard Wagner’s “Götterdämmerung”—"the Twilight of the Gods”—staged in the Detroit Opera House Parking Center. Inspired as much by the brutal utilitarianism of the parking facility as the safety precautions of the coronavirus era, “Twilight: Gods” transforms Wagner’s six-hour masterpiece into an hour-long series of scenes with live singers and members of the MOT orchestra performed in intervals throughout the Parking Center. Equal parts drive-in theater and opera house event, “Twilight: Gods” gives audience members the opportunity to watch Wagner’s drama unfold scene-by- scene from the safety of their cars, while the live performance (sung in English) is broadcast to car stereos—a full immersion in the world of the Ring.
