That windowless Michigan Bell Telephone building didn't always occupy its E. Huron St. plot as this picture suggests. Back in the 40s, and before and after, the council office of the Boy Scouts stood there as did (at left) the Cowie residence which later was acquired and razed by The News when parking space became a necessity. Sewell Platt's Ford garage was just to the right of the Scout headquarters building which later on houses a dance academy.

Wins Pacesetter Award: Sewell H. Platt, owner of the Huron Lanes at 320 E. Huron St., has been given the Pacesetter award for December, the third monthly award of the Civic Art Committee. The committee expressed the hope that Platt's "tasteful modernization of the Huron Lanes would set a pattern for more improvement of the properties which surround the planned new City Hall." Previous awards have been given to the Ann Arbor Town Club and George G. Curtis for improvement to the Curtis Building. The committee was established by the City Council.
