Download or read book Cottages and Resorts on the North Beach written by Helen O'Rourke and published by . This book was released on 2016-09-22 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historical photographs provide a unique time capsule of resort life in the late 1800s and early 1900s in South Haven, Michigan. This book focuses on the historical L. S. Monroe Park Subdivision that is bounded by Avery Street, North Shore Drive, Lake Shore Drive and the Black river. Originally, the buildings had no address numbers and were identified only by the quaint names given by the owners. Later in the century, street numbers were assigned. A map diagram uses the present day addresses to help serve as a tour guide through the region and includes adjacent areas significant to the resort trade. Demolition dates are noted. In the 1960s, the resort and rental trade in South Haven began a decline from its heyday and since then a different flavor has emerged with an emphasis on year-round and second home ownership. While summer rentals have persisted and a few restaurants lingered through the 1990s, the smaller resorts have vanished.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the 1880s, L. S. Monroe, the son of pioneer Judge J. R. Monroe, began the development of "Monroe Park" which opened the door to the remarkable vernacular architecture there which followed from 1890 to 1960. These structures continue to disappear rapidly due to "progress," individual tastes, and age. In the 1960s, the resort and rental trade began a decline and since then, a different flavor has emerged with an emphasis on individual year-round and second home ownership. Though summer rentals have persisted the small resorts have vanished. This book documents in pictures, the history of the most original buildings whether they are still standing or have been demolished."--P. [4] of cover.
