Annapolis Park Historic District
Annapolis Park Historic District, Historic residential district in Westland, United States.
The Annapolis Park Historic District spans 71 acres across Julius, Matthew, Hanover, Farnum, Alan, and Paul Streets, containing 354 residential buildings.
Julius and William Schwartz established this residential development between 1953 and 1955 specifically for African-American families during a period of housing discrimination.
The Southeast Westland Homeowners Association, formed in 1955, continues to maintain community connections among residents, including descendants of original homeowners.
The district features one-story ranch-style houses with brick exteriors, situated on lots measuring 50 to 60 feet wide and 110 to 140 feet deep.
The Franklin Mortgage Company was created by the Schwartz brothers to provide mortgages to potential homeowners when other institutions denied financing.
