    OM8 No. 1024-()018 Eap. 10-31-84 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Inventory-Nomination Form Contll'l.lation sheet Item number Page 34 Historic Name: Cass Motor Sales Common Name: Dalgleish Cadillac location: 5800 Cass Avenue Classification: Category: Building Ownership: Private Public Acquisition: N/A Status: Occupied Accessible: Yes, Unrestricted Present Use: Commercial Owner of Property: Charles Dalgleish Cadillac, Inc. 6160 Cass Avenue Detroit, Michigan 48202 Description: Condition: Excellent Unaltered Original Site Located on Oass Avenue adjacent to the Ford Expressway, the Cass Motor Sales building is a three-story, Art Deco styled, rectangular structure consisting of four bay sections separated by engaged columns that run the height of the building. Constructed in 1928, the building originally functioned as an integrated automobile showroom, service garage, and business offices for Cass Motor Sales. The front facade consists of three bays of equal size separated by engaged columns, and a fourth entrance bay smaller in scale. The base of the bay sections is made of black marble, and black colored metal panels provide a decorative separation between the first and second stories. The front facade is asymmetrically arranged, with an automobile entrance bay forming the northern most section, and a double-door pedestrian entrance located off to the right of center. Art Deco styli.ng provides decorative features throughout the front facade. Most noticeable is the stepped-arch treatment given to the arches above the four second story window sections, and to the arch above the front entrance. The geometric pattern of the string course between the second and third floors, and on the front entrance entablature, also point to the Art Deco movement that first emerged in the 1920s.

  • Chapter 6 Final Section 4(F) Evaluation
    6.0 Final Section 4(f) Evaluations 6.0 FINAL SECTION 4(F) EVALUATIONS FOR THE WOODBRIDGE NEIGHBORHOOD HISTORIC DISTRICT, I-94/M-10 INTERCHANGE, SQUARE D/DETROIT FUSE & MANUFACTRING BUILDING, AND THE UNITED SOUND SYSTEMS RECORDING STUDIOS Section 4(f) of the U.S. Department of Transportation Act of 1966 states that the Secretary of Transportation will not approve any program or project which requires the use of any publicly owned land from a public park, recreation area, or wildlife or waterfowl refuge, or any land from a historic site of national, state or local significance unless: 1. There is no prudent and feasible alternative to the use of such land, and 2. Such program or project includes all possible planning to minimize harm to these resources resulting from such use. The Recommended Alternative will not use any publicly owned land from a public park, recreation area, or wildlife or waterfowl refuge. Each parcel was reviewed to assess whether it was or was not a publicly owned land for a park or recreation area. The Wayne State University land purchasing agreements along I-94 were reviewed, as well as the University policies and Master Plan to ensure that the property was not subject to 4(f). Archival research and surveys were undertaken to determine whether the Recommended Alternative would impact historic sites of national, state, or local significance. Archival research relating to both prehistoric and historic period land use within the planning corridor was conducted, and a detailed land-use history summary was prepared. In addition, a block-by-block windshield inspection of nearly 300 city blocks was conducted, covering an area of nearly 2,400 acres.
