<h2>Site 9b. FIFTH AVENUE at DETROIT: west side</h2>
This is the area where suppliers and manufacturers established themselves between the town center and the railroad line. They provided the lumber, coal, flour, oil, ice and supplies needed to develop and maintain a prosperous community. Nearby were the names of workers, and the adjacent area became a neighborhood of evolving ethnic diversity.
