Detroit Street Residence

Detroit Street Residence
This 1874 map shows the location of B. F. Tyler's residence on Detroit Street (now "Avenue")--just south of St. Malachi Church which is identified as a "Cathedral.". This was the principal residence of Tyler and his family from at least as early as 1845 until his death in 1865. The small street bisecting the property was known as Tyler Lane. It was created after his death when his daughter Helen subdivided the property. The Detroit Avenue Tyler house no longer exists. It may have been razed in 1877 to make room for the Superior Viaduct which opened to traffic in 1878.
