The Manchester Apartments is a four-story apartment building constructed from brick.[2] The front entrance is flanked by pilasters, and surmounted by a stone panel with the name "Manchester." The details of the exterior, including corner blocks around window groupings, brick quoins, and patterns above the cornice, demonstrate the rise of modernism.[2] The building contains one- and two-bedroom apartments.[3]
History
Manchester Apartments was constructed in 1915. The building is typical of medium-scale middle-class apartment buildings built in Detroit in general and along East Jefferson in particular in the first decade of the 20th century.[2] The building continues to house apartments into 2020.[3]
