I grew up about 4 blocks from the courthouse and remember an arm falling off one of the statues while walking out of Ippel's. Don't live in Mich anymore, so thanks for sharing the memories.
My very first place was at the Fordney hotel my room was above the band stage in the bar below.i remember walking into town with a guy I help get a room.He seemed nice to me until I found out he was cooking pigeons over a ashtray in his room..later I found out he was caught in a few states for murder police were looking for him.
