Postcard
Color photographic postcard depicting Hotel Pontchartrain from the corner of Washington Boulevard and W Jefferson Avenue, with the Detroit Bank and Trust Tower, Marquette Building, Detroit Fire Department Headquarters, Penobscot Building, Guardian Building, and One Woodward visible.
Printed on verso: Detroit, Michigan. View looking northeast from the roof-deck parking area of Cobo Hall. In the foreground and in the heart of Detroit's beautiful Civic Center, is the new Hotel Pontchartrain. Owned by the Gershenson brothers, Aaron, Samuel, and William, this is Detroit's first new major hotel in nearly 40 years.
