Closing out the week, we might as well do another postcard…
Today is a card I have never seen before running across a copy on eBay recently.. It is a colour photo of the old City Hall. Although you can’t see it in the image above, the cars in the lot beside city hall look to be of the late 1940’s variety, so this shot is probably from the early years of the 1950’s. An interesting colour look at old City Hall, demolished in 1956.

Andrew, the aerial photo collection at Wayne State's website is down for me, are you experiencing the same problems? I am researching something and some aerial photos would help a great deal...
i might be mistaken, but on the side of 350 city hall they painted a mural of this building. as we all know, it makes it okay to tear a building down as long as you paint a picture of it somewhere or put a stone saying that it was there once. :)
