Parkside Homes & Addition, Central Heating Plant, Behind 12515 East Warren Avenue, Detroit, Wayne County, MI
Summary
Significance: This building has served as the central heating plant for Parkside Homes and the Parkside Addition from their opening to the present. Supplying the entire Parkside complex with steam from a central plant allowed the Public Works Administration to build Parkside more cheaply than had they used individual furnaces in each building.
