An item in the November 19, 1938 issue of Boxoffice noted renovation projects at several Detroit area neighborhood houses, all planned by the architectural firm of Wright & Rogvoy. This house was one of them: “Max Mantueffel’s Martha Washington will have a new front.”

There is now a large Wendy’s with drive-thru on that site. However, on the right of the photo linked above, the bank on the corner of Joseph Campau and Caniff still exists, as well as the white-tiled hamburger stand next to the bank.

The block on the opposite side of the street remains intact, though badly in need of historically appropriate renovation and repair.
