A few missing multiple-entries have now been placed on the map, 1206 Woodward (former site of J.L Hudson’s), 1300 Beaubien, etc. I think this makes the map - dare I say it - pretty much complete.
177 locations (not including multiples), some real, some ficticious, some real but long gone.
If there’s anything, anybody thinks is missing - let me know.

Robb,

Just saw your comment about your family not seeing merit if your seeing parking lot where Robbie Daniels took out Curtis Moore. Funny stuff. By the way, believe that hit took place in lower level parking garage of Detroit Plaza Hotel in Ren Center. Just recently did a re-read of Split Images. An under-rated book. Probably darkest of Elmore’s work based on Angela Nolan’s unfortunate death.

We did a photo shoot for Monthly Detroit’s Split Images excerpt in 1981-82 of Robbie Daniels played by Detroit actor, Ed Oldani.  We borrowed a High Standard Field King from the cops.  We shot the picture in the Kennedy Square parking garage that isn’t there any more.

(There’s one for Robb.)
