Danforth House
Danforth House. Source: Cooney 2010: 5.
Built in 1850 by George Danforth, when the Greek Revival style was at a high, this temple-front home features bold cornices, shuttered six-over-six windows, and a side entrance with Doric columns. It was considered by the Washtenaw County Historical Society in 1968 to be made into a museum but it was demolished in 1971 after it partially collapsed (Wineberg 2004: 92). Since then the site has been a parking lot.
