- Description
-
111 Orchestra Pl., at the northwest corner of Orchestra Pl. and John R St. was the location of the Gotham Hotel.
Orchestra Pl. no longer exists. It was a short street that ran for one block from Woodward Ave. to John R St. On older maps of Detroit, it is labeled Woodward Terrace. It was renamed Orchestra Pl. after the Orchestra Hall was built in 1919 for the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. The concert hall stood (and still stands) at 3711 Woodward Ave., on the west side of Woodward Ave., and Orchestra Pl. began directly across from it on the east side of Woodward Ave. - Mentioned In
