That hotel renovation is looking nice. How long until it's completed?
|
They want it open by fall, in time for the new school year.
|
Two tours in one, thanks.

More of this, Robk, really. We don't see nearly enough Flint around here, and we need to.
I'd never even heard of Woodcroft, so it was quite a surprise. Last time I was in Flint (some years ago), I took a little drive around Carriagetown and the potential and what is going on is amazing. Flint's got what it takes to come back if it can find some outsourcable industries to latch on to. |
Is Atwood Stadium considered to be in Carriagetown? I played football there once in high school. The AstroTurf was brutal.
|
Not the most happening place ever, but it was nice to see some of those great old homes--relics from a by-gone era, unfortunately. Thanks for posting these.

Rockin:cheers:

I always knew there were some huge houses around there, but didn't know exactly where. I'm still learning about many of the neighboorhoods as I go. |
Isn't there another famous mansion district in Flint? I remember seeing a photo tour of a mansion district in Flint a few years ago. I can't remember if it was Woodcroft or not, but it was supposedly home to a lot of early 20th century mansions.

Cool...literally
|
^ Yeah, gave me a bit of a chill too TOP.
Wonderful to see some good stuff from Flint. I know the city has been through hell, so the renovations are a pleasure to see. I didn't realize there was still such a "rich" hood with such large houses. Thanks for the tour(s), and look forward to more. oh yeah, cool old firehouse too. |
Geat tour of Flint!! It's great to see some nice parts of the city!! :tup:

There are some larger homes across Miller Road from the Michigan School for the Deaf (not too far from Woodcroft) as well as down by Thread Lake and the Flint Golf Course. |
Nice pictures. I liked seeing those old factories and headquarters and stuff.

I will post some pics of the neighborhood if people are interested, including the mansions. |
You can see Woodlawn Park on the map at the beginning of this thread. it is bounded by I-69 to the south Dort Hwy to the east Robert T. Longway Blvd to the North and Mott College to the West. Court St. runs smack dab through the middle going East and west. The mansions are located along Woodlawn Park Dr. at the southwest of the neighborhood just south of Mott College.
I love living like 4 blocks from a golf course. |
