66. Site of Marx Brewery, 1863-1936
The block facing the Detroit River between Oak and Elm and that is a parking lot today, was formerly occupied by the Marx Brewery (1862-1936) a prominent local industry.
Front Street (later named Van Alstyne Blvd in 1904) separated the brewery to the east with the Gray Flouring Mill (1893-1922), the Wyandotte Herald newspaper (published from 1880-1943) and numerous other commercial and residential buildings to the west.
Today a parking lot occupies the site of the former brewery.
