Fox & Hounds Inn (Demolished)
Bloomfield, MI

The Fox & Hounds Inn in Bloomfield Hills was a landmark restaurant dating from 1928. It always catered to the wealthy and remained virtually unchanged until the day the doors were closed. One of my earliest memories is of this place with its gold dome which as a kid really stood out as we would  drive by. The building, like many of the nearby mansions, was designed in the traditional Tudor style that was popular at the time. The building was sold to a developer who tossed down the standard "the building is in too bad of a condition to be saved" card. At Christmas 2007, all that remained was the planter and trees you see in these pictures. The builder said it plans to incorporate some of the design elements into the new building so I am sure we can look forward to a cheesy looking structure sometime in the future much like across the street when a few years back they pulled down a few 20's era English style storefronts and put up what can only be described as a non-de script building. The last event held at the Fox & Hounds was a Woodward Dream Cruise party. For more info look at http://www.foxandhoundsonline.com/. 02-08

Here are pictures of Nick’s Restaurant, 2130 Broadway Street, Anderson, IN. Broadway runs through Anderson running north and south and used to be State Road 9 before the state road was located a few miles to the east in order to by-pass downtown. There are many old gas stations and restaurants on this street. This restaurant has great big windows and a long "sit down" counter. 01-08
