  • 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.

    Guardian Building National Historic Landmark (See Map Attachment D; see Figures 48-49) The Guardian Building National Historic Landmark is a monolithic forty-story, ceramic tile and brick-clad, steel-frame, skyscraper; it is an excellent example of the Art Deco style and is richly embellished with ornament indicative of that style. The property was listed in the NRHP under Criterion C as a significant example of Art Deco and skyscraper architecture designed by architect Wirt C. Rowland of the architectural firm Smith, Hinchman, and Grylls. It was designated as a National Historic Landmark in 1989. Near the Guardian Building National Historic Landmark, project implementation under Design Option 2 would include installation of guideway alignments in Congress Street’s southernmost lane 15 feet north of the property and in Larned Street’s southernmost lane approximately 40 feet south of the property. The OCS, consisting of support poles and wires, would be installed in roadway rights-of-way along the alignments. No physical impacts to the Guardian Building National Historic Landmark would occur; no project activity is proposed within the property’s NRHP boundary. Therefore, no effects to the property’s integrity of location, design, materials, and workmanship would occur. Although the proposed guideway alignment and OCS would be visible from some portions of the Guardian Building National Historic Landmark, these facilities represent a minor alteration to the property’s visual urban setting. No historic views to or from the building would be obscured. Because no views would be obscured, no visual effects to the property were identified. Furthermore, based on current information, no auditory, vibratory, or atmospheric impacts were identified for these properties.
