After fire virtually destroyed the second floor of the south wing and intense heat and water damaged the rest of the two-story brick building at 2010 Washtenaw Ave. last April, owner J. E. Stowe asked Colvin, Robinson & Associates to redesign the two-family residence. At left is a News photograph of the fire at its height; above is the structure as it appears today, awaiting occupancy. An apartment has been built into the basement; another on the main floor. The bearing walls were retained, but otherwise, the building's interior is radically changed. Among features are wide use of sand-blasted fir paneling and decorative glass panels along the wall in the hall under which are planting pockets.

BLAZE KILLS 125 PRIME EGG-LAYERS: Laying hens - 125 of them, valued at $375 - were destroyed this morning when flames leveled a large chickenhouse on the Kingsley farm, three and a half miles south of South Lyon on the Dixboro Rd. Prompt action by South Lyon firemen saved adjacent buildings from the wind-fanned blaze. Origin of the fire was not determined, but defective wiring was thought to have been a possible cause.
