Aerial Photograph of the Proposed Urban Renewal Area in North Central Ann Arbor, March 1956
Year:
1956
Published In:
Ann Arbor News, March 22, 1956
Caption:
Pictured in the News aerial photograph is the 75-acre area on Ann Arbor's north side which the city is considering as the site for a major redevelopment project. The solid white lines enclose the 48-acre tract originally proposed for redevelopment. The broke white lines enclose additional tracts added to the project by City Council action Monday. The extreme western portion of the area (left side of picture) is not shown. Major boundaries of the total 75-acre piece includes E. Ann St., N. Fourth Ave., Catherine St., N. Division St., Beakes St., Depot St., the Ann Arbor Railroad line, Felch St., N. Ashley St., Miller Ave. and N. Main St. Prominent in the foreground of the photo is the new Courthouse. First step in the proposed redevelopment program will be the city's application for a $38,000 federal planning loan. With the money it will be determined which structures with the area need to be demolished, which ones moved, what changes may be required in street routes and what other changes are necessary to redevelop the area. Total cost of the project has been estimated at more than $3,500,000.
