Lineup of RESIDENCES IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO GOVERNMENT OFFICES of the state government of Michigan.

I am sorry to yell but this is unusual.

 

The huge government building is from 1966! I bet in 1966 its architects expected that the residences would all be gone by now, replaced by government buildings.
