1999 Ypsilanti Heritage Foundation Home Tour:
1035 Washtenaw

Wayne and Pat Woodside

An outstanding example of the Craftsman Bungalow Style, this intriguing house was built in 1927. The interior is filled with many Craftsman touches, including wood floors, molding, trim, multiple built-ins, and classic beveled glass.

959 Sherman

John and Kristi Martin

Evoking feelings of an East Coast urban row house, this delightful Georgian Revival Style home, built in 1937, has many exterior features which hark back to the Colonial period. The current owners have continued refurbishment on the house, adding a second story wing, opening up a screen porch, and enhancing the lush gardens.

Town Hall School

West Circle Drive

Eastern Michigan University Campus

Several generations of students were educated at this historic one-room school built in 1895. As EMU's Sequicentennial project and through the efforts of the Friends of Town Hall School, it was rescued and moved from Pittsfield Township to its current site. Inside are several period objects representative of 19th and early 20th century one-room schools.

212 Washtenaw

Al Heezen and Wanda McGlasson

Originally built as a parsonage for the First Methodist Church in 1871, this home is a wonderful example of the Italianate Style. It was saved from the wrecking ball, and its current owners have made tireless efforts over the past thirteen years to restore its 19th century charm and grace. 

29 E. Cross

Suzanne Shaw

Built in 1849, this Federal Style commercial building is located in the heart of Ypsilanti's historic Depot Town. On tour is spacious, light-filled corner apartment featuring big windows, high ceilings, and plenty of wall space for the owner's eclectic art collection.

S. Ashleigh Dietz

Major restoration, under the current owner's creative hand, has rescued this beautiful Queen Anne Style home from years of neglect. Built in the 1880s, this home features an inviting Victorian parlor, an elegant library, period wallpaper, cherry woodwork, and a beckoning bay window.
