Bundled up in plastic wrappings to provide workers with warmth and protection from the weather, the 26-story building being constructed at the corner of Maynard and E. William is slowly rising. When completed, it will dwarf the Maynard House (left) and will be the tallest building in Michigan outside Detroit. The News photographer, looking west on William, pictured the construction boom that almost spans the street near the Maynard intersection (foreground).

This hole in the ground at Maynard and William is part of the site of the city's tallest building, a 26-story apartment-commercial building to be constructed by the William Street Co. The City Council has approved issuance of a building permit, setting aside for this project its 18-story height limitation ordinance. Work on a commercial wing (bottom) is going on to allow dry cleaning establishment and a small restaurant to move as soon as possible from William St. buildings (upper right) which are to be razed along with others (not pictured), as additional construction space. The high-rise building will contain 300 efficiencies and one-bedroom living units aboe the ground floor, with average population of 1 1/2 persons per unit. The building will have a 25-foot-wide pedestrian walkway running the entire length of the Maynard St. frontage (left). A total of four commercial spaces will form the commercial wing on Maynard St., which will be an integral part of the 26-story building.
