Description

This photograph is of 223 West Grand River Avenue, Howell, Michigan.
In 1984 Cobb-Hall Insurance Company was located in this building. Adjacent building was Country Squire Lighting, Hearth and Home.

In 1983, the Howell Area Chamber of Commerce applied for a R/UDAT (Regional/Urban Design Assistance Team) study, an American Institute of Architects program that brought a team of professionals to the city for a four-day period to study Howell's downtown, its ability to compete for regional shopping, and to make recommendations for improvements to re-vitalize the city.  The team, in 1984, during the study took photographs, interviewed people, held forums, and in the end provided an outline of strategies.
