HistoryEarly in the 20th century, Charles Hugh Stevenson, his brother, and his father-in-law founded the Davenport Realty Company.[2] Stevenson was a writer and lawyer and was internationally recognized for work in the hotel industry.[2] In 1913, the Davenport Realty Company built the Hotel Stevenson (named for Charles Hugh Stevenson), which was designed to house the influx of male, transient, workers who came to Detroit to work in the booming auto industry.[2] The hotel architect was Joseph P. Jogerst.[3] The structure was designed as an apartment hotel, offering primarily efficiency and one bedroom units, rather than the two to four-room suites contained in typical apartment buildings of the time.[2] The building was sold to the Milner Hotel Chain, which changed its name to the Milner Arms. In 2016, the building was sold to Broder & Sachse Real Estate Services, Inc. It is still in operation as an apartment building.[4] DescriptionThe Milner Arms is an eight-story rectangular Georgian Revival steel frame apartment building clad with brick. The facade is symmetric, with the exception of the first floor. The first floor contains five arched openings with masonry quoins; the second is the entrance. A projecting cornice with brackets separates the first floor from the upper stories. Floors two through seven have identical double hung single pane windows. There is a narrow belt course between floors six and seven, and the windows on the seventh floor have continuous sills. A heavy cornice separates the seventh and eighth floors. The eighth floor windows are arched, and a balustrade above caps the facade.[5] The Milner Arms contains a total of 93 apartments. Sixty-eight are studio apartments, ranging from 250 to 600 square feet. Twenty-two are one-bedroom units of about 800 square feet, and the remaining three are two-bedroom units of about 1,020 square feet.[4] References1. ^1 {{NRISref|2008a}} {{Midtown Detroit}}{{National Register of Historic Places in Michigan}}{{Architecture of metropolitan Detroit}}{{Cass Farm Multiple Property Submission}}2. ^1 2 3 Hotel Stevenson {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071011130019/http://www.ci.detroit.mi.us/historic/districts/stevenson_hotel.pdf |date=2007-10-11 }} from the city of Detroit 3. ^{{cite web | title=Hotel Stevenson / Milner Arms Apartments | author=Ren Farley | publisher=Detroit1701.org | url=http://detroit1701.org/Stevenson%20Hotel.html | accessdate=February 16, 2011 }} 4. ^1 {{citation | title = Milner Arms apartments in Midtown sell to Broder & Sachse | author = Kirk Pinho | date = March 24, 2016 | publisher = Crain's Detroit Businsee | url = http://www.crainsdetroit.com/article/20160324/NEWS/160329918/milner-arms-apartments-in-midtown-detroit-sell-to-broder-sachse}} 5. ^{{citation | title = National Register of Historic Places Registration Form: Hotel Stevenson | author = Gretchen Griner | date = February 1997 | url = https://catalog.archives.gov/id/25338691}} 7 : Residential buildings on the National Register of Historic Places in Michigan|Residential buildings completed in 1913|Apartment buildings in Detroit|1913 establishments in Michigan|National Register of Historic Places in Detroit|Residential skyscrapers in Detroit|Georgian Revival architecture in Michigan |
