February 11, 201213 yr It's in the Palmer Park Apartment Building Historic District in northwest Detroit. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmer_Park_Apartment_Building_Historic_District
February 11, 201213 yr Awesome. "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
February 11, 201213 yr Few cities have as many grand, beautiful Art Deco buildings as Detroit... Nice to see some of them get fixed up... IIRC, this building's on/near the corner of McNichols (aka Six Mile Road) and Woodward, at the edge of the exclusive Palmer Park Neighborhood on the NW side of the city (as noted).
February 13, 201213 yr I'm glad to see the Palmer Park neighborhood is getting some love. Nice building!
February 14, 201213 yr Palmer Park has great buildings. Lots of Moorish influence. I lived in a building of identical style when I was in Ann Arbor
February 14, 201213 yr You're right, Andre, the exterior of La Vogue Sq. is Moorish. Inside is what I was looking at which is kinda Art Deco with a Moorish echo.
February 15, 201213 yr You're right, Andre, the exterior of La Vogue Sq. is Moorish. Inside is what I was looking at which is kinda Art Deco with a Moorish echo. Well it's actually adapted art deco to moorish style. Art deco was in full force when these were built. The two styles work together perfectly. I miss those iconic Alhambra arches at my old place.
February 17, 201213 yr I would feel the need to "strike a pose" every day if I lived in the La Vogue.
