Louis G. Redstone Residential Historic District
The Louis G. Redstone Residential Historic District consists of three houses located on Appoline Street in the Greenwich Park neighborhood in northwest Detroit along with the perimeter brick wall that encloses their common rear yards, an outdoor cook stove incorporated into the wall and a small wading pool decorated with stylized snail sculptures by artist Samuel Cashwan. The architect, author and artist constructed the homes in 1940, designed by Redstone for himself (19303 Appoline), his brother Solomon -Sol- Redstone (19309 Appoline Street), and his business partner, architect Henry J . Abrams (19315 Appoline).
This is significant as a collection of architect-designed houses exhibiting the fundamental characteristics of the International Style including their simple geometric form and proportions, lack of ornament, low-sloped hip roofs, corner windows, use of textured glass block, curved bays and open and free-flowing floor plans. Further, the design of these residences is distinctive for its use of reclaimed common red brick for the exterior instead of the more characteristic smooth white stucco walls that are a common feature of International Style buildings. The site planning of the houses is also unusual and distinctive in that four parcels were purchased to accommodate the three residences.
