- El Distrito Histórico del Boulevard Washington es un área de varias cuadras en el Downtown de Detroit, Míchigan. Consiste en estructuras que dan al Boulevard Washington entre las calles State y Clifford. En 1982, se agregó al Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos. Incluye el Book-Cadillac Hotel, la Book Tower, el Industrial Building el Detroit City Apartments, entre otros edificios arquitectónicamente significativos. El Washington es uno de los principales bulevares de la ciudad y parte del diseño de Augustus Woodward de 1807. Debido a que el plan de Woodward nunca se completó, el Boulevard contiene una curva cerrada al sur de la Avenida Míchigan, donde estaba conectado a una calle existente. La calle fue ensanchada y adornada a principios del siglo XX. El desarrollo fue inspirado por el movimiento City Beautiful y financiado por J. Burgess Book Jr. y diseñado por Louis Kamper. Esto con el fin de parecerse a la Quinta Avenida de Nueva York y los bulevares europeos. Un parque bordeado de esculturas entre dos calles unidireccionales decoraba un distrito comercial y un exclusivo barrio residencial Edward H. Bennett, un conocido planificador maestro, convirtió a Boulevard Washington en un paisaje urbano de Beaux-Arts. A fines de la década de 1970, el Boulevard Washington fue rediseñado con un centro comercial peatonal urbano que incluía nuevas esculturas y un anfiteatro. Desde entonces ha sido restaurado a su plan original. (es)
- Washington Boulevard Historic District is a multi-block area of downtown Detroit, Michigan. It consists of structures facing Washington Boulevard between State and Clifford Streets. In 1982, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places. It includes the Book-Cadillac Hotel, the Book Tower, the Industrial Building, and Detroit City Apartments among other architecturally significant buildings. Washington Boulevard is one of the city's main boulevards and part of Augustus Woodward's 1807-design for the city. Because Woodward's plan was never completed, the boulevard contains a sharp curve south of Michigan Avenue where it was connected to an existing street. The street was broadened and ornamented in the early part of the 20th century. The development was inspired by the City Beautiful movement and financed by and designed by Louis Kamper. It was to resemble New York's Fifth Avenue and European boulevards. A sculpture lined park between two one-way streets decorated a shopping district and upscale residential neighborhood Edward H. Bennett, a well known master planner, turned Washington Boulevard into a Beaux-Arts streetscape. In the late 1970s, Washington Boulevard was redesigned with an urban pedestrian mall that included new sculptures and an amphitheater. It has since been restored to its original plan. (en)
