361 and 381 Covington Drive--Detroit MI
These are two Moderne efforts by local architect Robert West. Very similar in size and scale, the primary differences are the window layouts and the corner windows on the building at left (The Balmoral Apartments, at 361 Covington Drive) and the asymmetrical facade of the building on the right (The Fairlane Apartments). Both were built in 1937and are contributing properties to the Palmer Park Apartment Buildings Historic District (Boundary Increase), listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
