Mercy Hall Hospital of Detroit Rediscovered
I can now put a name to this previously unidentified house on Watson. While I was researching Brush Park on Virtual Motor City. I discovered this photograph from 1931. At the time, this was the location of Mercy Hall Hospital, a small Detroit facility for indigent cancer patients, founded by Loretta Mary Gibson. It relocated to 269 Mack in the 1940's.

What a beautiful house. I know this is a stupid question, but does it still stand?
Yes, it still exists. The photo is from 2 weeks ago.
