On yet another detour from N. Division being closed, I saw they had placed orange barrels around Crescent Park. I was worried that Crescent Park was going to built on for phase II. I really didn't want to see that unique historic park disappear forever Oops, I guess I should read the WHOLE thread. I see this has been covered. I haven't been here in a while.

I miss the Grand Prix!!! That was so much fun being on the inside corner of the track. It was a pain to get into work that day, plus once we were in, we couldn't leave the building if the cars were on the track. I didn't get a lot of work done that day, too busy looking out the windows and taking pics. Edited to Add: GRDad, I really love the shot of the Aldrich Building with the Michigan National Building in the background. Excellent!

This is what I see... Clockwise from top center: 1) The Michigan Nat'l Bank Bldg. (I don't know what it is called now, also the former home of the weather ball) 2) The Blue Cross/Blue Shield Bldg, the old Steketee's (it's painted beige on the top) 3) The Commerce Bldg. 4) By looking at the brick color, I think the bottom one is the building in between Al & Sons garage and the old Macatawa Bank. I don't know who is in there. 5) The current GRAM, old Federal Bldg. 6) The former Interstate Bldg., now part of Kendall/Ferris. 7) The Morton House, aka "The Mortie." It looks like two or three bluidings because it wraps around the corner and is painted a different color in the back. 8) In the center is the elevator tower of the parking ramp at Fountain and Ionia. 9) The Cornerstone Bldg. on both sides of the elevator tower. I'm new here, so be nice if I am wrong.
