## Reader notes

### The definitive guide to Detroit Architecture

Thoroughly researched, this book is a must have. Patterned after the W. Hawkins Ferry book I had decades ago as a student, this book updates and adds significant content about the rich architectural history of Detroit. The writeups are informative from both a building and historical context. I loved the descriptions, such as from the Guardian Building (my favorite), "a lightning bolt of spirited inventiveness". Take this book with you as you stroll downtown and youll find new treasures, like the Water Department building. Excellent!
