Another classic Corktown workers' cottage, this one in need of some considerable TLC. Surely, it will get it soon... #Detroit #Westside #CorktownDetroit #VictorianCottage #VictorianArchitecture #VernacularArchitecture #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #deserve2preserve #TheAmericanHome #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter #SavingPlaces #NikonD3400 #NikonNoFilter (at Corktown, Detroit) https://www.instagram.com/p/BnlvpP6A2JJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ev7clw6sn4gd

This home on Bagley in Corktown is quite popular amongst photographers these days, and for good reason. I mean, look at it. From the classic bracketed cornice to the lentils and those great bay windows, it's pretty much a perfect Victorian house. I'm not exactly a fan of pink, however, it works in this case. #Detroit #Westside #CorktownDetroit #Italianate #VictorianCottage #VictorianArchitecture #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhousesoldandnew #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #IGersDetroit #detroit_igers #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter #SceneFromDetroit #ThisDetroitLife (at Corktown, Detroit)

Frederick Swaine was a native of Dorset, England. Upon visiting Ypsilanti in 1871, he decided to relocated there permanently. The following year, he entered the malt industry. That same year, Swaine purchased the Malt House, a former school located at North River Street and East Forest Avenue, from future brothers -in - laws Worger George and L. C. Washington, significantly enlarging its dimensions to 50 x 90 feet and 3 levels. In 1873, he built this beautiful, 2 - story Italianate residence next to the Malt House. The Swaine House was among the first in Ypsi to have electricity. Swaine married Eliza George in 1874. The couple had 4 children, 2 sons and 2 daughters. The sons died before age 3, whille the daughters both lived long, spending their entire lives in the family home before both passing away in 1968. Under Swaine, the business thrived, with an increased output 40,000 bushels in 1880 from 11,000 in 1874. Unfortunately, Frederick Swaine died suddenly in 1897. The Malt House was demolished in 1912, although a smaller building on the property remains. #Ypsilanti #Ypsi #WashtenawCounty #Italianate #VictorianCottage #VictorianArchitecture #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhousesoldandnew #TheAmericanHome #ThisPlaceMatters #MichiganPlacesMatter (at Ypsilanti, Michigan)

This small Victorian workers' cottage at 1662 Bagley (174 Baker) was built around 1877, possibly by James A. Chubb, a carpenter by trade. The home would go on to be owned by several Irish women. Corktown has a long tradition of Irish women ownership.

This quaint Victorian cottage at the corner of Porter & Sixth streets is one my favorite homes in Corktown and one of the historic district's most recognizable homes, due largely to its colorful exterior. #Detroit #Westside #SouthwestDetroit #Corktown #VictorianCottage #VictorianArchitecture #archi_ologie #oldhouselove #casasecasarios #houses_ofthe_world #beautifulhouseoldandnew #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #IGersDetroit #detroit_igers #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter (at Corktown, Detroit)
