LAUNDRY NOW OFFICE UNIT: This remodeled building at Catherine St. and N. Fourth Ave. was remodeled from a laundry into a multiple office structure by Carroll A. Benz of Ann Arbor. The exterior was refinished, giving it a neat appearance within a 75-acre north-central sector of Ann Arbor being considered for rehabilitation under an urban renewal program being studied by the City Council. It is receiving recommendations from a Plan Standards Committee.

The old frames the new in this picture taken from an old barn just south of an 11-story office building, Wolverine Tower, on S. State near the I-94 interchange and the Briarwood Shopping Center. The decaying timbers are a reminder of when this part of the Ann Arbor area was mostly fields and barns. Now it is an area of heavy construction which also includes the building of an apartment complex just north of Briarwood. A new section of Eisenhower Parkway is also being constructed just north of the office building, which is scheduled to open in early 1974. Briarwood is scheduled to open in October.

A small portion of a second high-rise office building has risen on the horizon in a southeast portion of the city where there used to be nothing more than four story buildings. Located near the corner of S. State Street and Eisenhower Parkway, the office building for the Bechtel Power Corp. has reached its full height of 10 stories but the total project is only about 4 per cent complete with the steel structure erected all the way for two of the seven sections of the building. The 253,000-square-foot Bechtel building will have 50 per cent more space than the 11-story Wolverine Tower office building in the background. The two structures are part of the recent development in the area of the I-94 interchange with State Street, where the Briarwood Shopping Center also is located. (News Photo by Jack Stubbs)
