Brush Park, one of Detroit’s first districts of wealth and prominence, was primarily constructed in the 1870’s. The rich architectural detail can still be seen in some of the homes – those still standing that is. The First Presbyterian Church, the original Temple Beth-El (now Wayne State University’s Bonstelle Theater), the First Unitarian Church of Detroit and the Woodward Avenue Baptist Church are all located along the Woodward corridor of Brush Park.
By 1900, the district was losing many of its residents to the historic Boston-Edison District, located further north,
along Woodward. --Jacquie Trost
Originally prime farmland and later the city’s first affluent neighborhood, the small neighborhood off Woodward wedged between Downtown skyscrapers and the Midtown hospitals was for decades greatly abandoned, shuttered and rundown.
After years of arduous planning and conflicting interests by local stakeholders, a diverse array of residential developments, anchored by scattered Victorian-era houses in various stages of restoration, are creating a new urban place.
A community? Maybe not quite yet. Different people with different lifestyles are settling into Brush Park, redefining the area once more. And, in time, residents have come together.
