Wikipedia:WikiProject National Register of Historic Places/NRIS information issues/Michigan

This is a subpage of WikiProject National Register of Historic Places/NRIS information issues, split out because that page is too large. See that page for an explanation of how this page works.

Property names

 * NRIS includes "Truck Line Bridge No. 1" (and this is echoed in NRHP.COM) for the bridge actually named "Trunk Line Bridge No. 1, also known as Peshekee River Bridge, in Marquette County, Michigan. That it is supposed to be Trunk not Truck is clear in Michigan Department of Transportation's webpage about this bridge and in the National Register's own Highway Bridges in Michigan MPS document. doncram (talk) 19:59, 30 August 2008 (UTC)


 * submitted in batch01:01, reported by NRHP_RT to be fixing in NRIS as of 3/4/2009. doncram (talk) 23:23, 4 March 2009 (UTC)


 * M-27-Au Sable River Bridge in Crawford County: description says that it carries M-72, and maps confirm that it's M-72. Nyttend (talk) 01:16, 7 April 2009 (UTC)


 * M-86-Prarie River Bridge in St. Joseph County: correct "Prarie" to "Prairie". Nyttend (talk) 23:59, 2 August 2009 (UTC)


 * The John and Edna Trusdell Fischer Farmstead should be the John and Edna Truesdell Fischer Farmstead (with an "E" in "Truesdell"). Cite from the state of Michigan Andrew Jameson (talk) 10:43, 26 May 2010 (UTC)


 * The John and Eliza Barr Patterson House is listed as "John Patterson and Eliza Barr" for some reason: not only is "House" deleted, but the name implies seperate ownership, when in fact "Eliza Barr Patterson" was John's wife. Note the MPS nom form lists the structure as the "John and Eliza Barr Patterson House," and the other houses in the nom follow the same pattern. Andrew Jameson (talk) 17:41, 17 June 2010 (UTC)


 * The County Road C11 – Pike River Bridge in Houghton County should be the County Road C117 – Pike River Bridge per this State of Michigan site. Moreover, the road is actually signed "Old US-41", so that might be the proper name. Andrew Jameson (talk) 12:25, 11 October 2010 (UTC)


 * The Arvon Township Hall in Baraga County is erroneously listed as the "Avon Township Hall" (without the R). Source here. Andrew Jameson (talk) 13:17, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
 * The H. W. Harte Block-Crystal Falls Village Hall is listed as the "H. W. Harte Block-Chrystal Falls Village Hall" (with an "h" in "Crystal." It's located in the city of Crystal Falls, Michigan, and so the "h" is obviously wrong. cite Andrew Jameson (talk) 21:22, 22 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Like the "Truck Line" bridge above, the Cheboygan Bascule Bridge is misspelled "Cheboyan" Bascule Bridge in the database. Chris857 (talk) 01:41, 17 September 2012 (UTC)


 * The Thomson Road–Air Line Railroad Bridge is misspelled in the NRIS as the ThomPson Road–Air Line Railroad Bridge. This page notes the error, and MDOT (who should be an authority) lists it without the "P". Andrew Jameson (talk) 15:45, 31 December 2013 (UTC)


 * The Warren A. and Catherine Cartier House is listed as the William A. and Catherine Cartier House. Andrew Jameson (talk) 17:51, 14 November 2016 (UTC)


 * In Kent County, the Mathias J. Alten House and Studio is somehow listed as the "Mathias. Alten House and Studio" (with the period, but no "J") Andrew Jameson (talk) 10:37, 21 August 2019 (UTC)

Listing issue

 * In Kalamazoo County, Engine House No. 3 (Kalamazoo, Michigan) is erroneously listed as removed. It appears that the issue is that, on June 8, 2011 (see the the 6/17/2011 Weekly List), The Harriett in Indianapolis was actually removed from the Register, but the Engine House was accidentally tagged in the database. The Harriett has a refnum of 83000057, and the Engine House a refnum of 83000857. Andrew Jameson (talk) 14:46, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

Eaton County

 * In Eaton County, the 9622nd Army Air Corps Reserve Recovery Unit-Civil Air Patrol Quonset Huts are missing and presumed demolished. The 1992 HAER write-up on the Quonsets states that "The Quonset Huts are identified airport hazards under the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) standards, and are scheduled for removal," so presumably they were razed some time shortly after 1992. Andrew Jameson (talk) 13:12, 31 August 2017 (UTC)

 * In Ionia, Michigan: the Lovell-Webber House has been demolished. Cite: Lovell-Webber House (demolished)

 * In Shiawassee County, the Daniel Gould House and Ebenezer Gould House no longer exist, although I cannot find any information about when or why they were demolished. kennethaw88 • talk 21:41, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Note the Ebenezer Gould House article has a cite saying the house has been moved. Andrew Jameson (talk) 11:19, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

 * In Cheboygan, Michigan, the Cheboygan County Courthouse has been demolished. Cite:Cheboygan County Courthouse (Demolished) from the state of Michigan. Andrew Jameson (talk) 13:48, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

Possible loss of historic integrity

 * The NHL Ste. Claire (passenger steamboat) experienced a massive fire in 2018, completely destroying the wooden superstructure. The steel hull still exists, and the owners are rebuilding. Not sure is that's actually "demolished", but certainly much of the historical value has been destroyed. Andrew Jameson (talk) 07:17, 20 March 2019 (UTC) Delisted as a NHL and from the NRHP in 2023. Andrew Jameson (talk) 12:33, 16 December 2023 (UTC)


 * The Delta Upsilon Fraternity House in Ann Arbor (Washtenaw County) was gutted by fire in 2008. It was reconstructed and reopened in 2019, but much of the original structure was destroyed. Andrew Jameson (talk) 18:43, 27 March 2019 (UTC)


 * The Philetus W. Norris House in Detroit was substantially destroyed by arson in 2016. A small portion was saved, but the bulk of the house was completely demolished. Andrew Jameson (talk) 14:34, 22 July 2018 (UTC)


 * The Forrest J. Stimpson House in Cheboygan County, Michigan, according to a contact at the Mackinaw Area Historical Society, "was removed from site and left in the woods at Trails End Road and changed dramatically." Andrew Jameson (talk) 16:19, 10 June 2019 (UTC)

 * In Kalamazoo, the sculptural element of the Fountain of the Pioneers was removed from its place in Bronson Park and placed into storage (and is apparently unlikely to come back out). Delisted 2019 Andrew Jameson (talk) 17:10, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

Town location issue

 * Big Sable Point Light Station near Ludington, Michigan is listed near Mason, 175 road miles to the southeast. Nyttend (talk) 15:50, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

County location issue

 * The Canyon Falls Bridge is listed in Missaukee County (north-central Lower Peninsula), but its coordinates and community location (L'Anse Township) place it in Baraga County (western Upper Peninsula). Nyttend (talk) 02:04, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
 * The location description ("US 41 over Sturgeon River") also places it in Baraga County, and the State of Michigan HSO listing explicitly states "Baraga County". Missaukee is clearly an error. Andrew Jameson (talk) 09:26, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

Address issues

 * Fox Theatre (Detroit, Michigan), is located at 2111 Woodward Avenue, per the NRIS entry. The correct address is 2211 Woodward Avenue, instead, per an anonymous wikipedia editor making the correction to its article.  Per this Michigan government website and per the NPS's webpage for it, the address is 2111.  Per the, however, the address is also 2111.  So, maybe it is correctly listed as 2111. doncram (talk) 21:51, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Per the Fox Theatre itself, "the Fox Theatre is located at 2211 Woodward Avenue, Detroit, MI 48201." As an independent check, The Fillmore Detroit, also on the NRHP, is listed at 2115 Woodward. The Fillmore is a block south of the Fox (this can be verified in Google Street view), and thus should have a lower-numbered address. Andrew Jameson (talk) 12:01, 8 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Jefferson Hall (Detroit, Michigan) is listed at 1405 Jefferson; it should be (per the state of Michigan and the city of Detroit) at 1404 Jefferson. Note this is a little confuzzled by the fact that Jefferson Hall is actually demolished, but the photograph on the state site (click to blow up) clearly shows the Croul-Palms House (1394 Jefferson) next to Jefferson Hall, so the location across the street at 1405 Jefferson is clearly wrong. Andrew Jameson (talk) 12:15, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Old Main, Suomi College is listed at "Quincy St. on the Suomi College campus"; as can be inferred from this webpage, the college has become Finlandia University, so description should be changed to "Quincy St. on the Finlandia University campus". Nyttend (talk) 19:36, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Holy Redeemer Church (Eagle Harbor, Michigan) is described as being located "off US 41" in Eagle Harbor, Michigan (see here). While that's technically not incorrect, in that even Paris, France is "off US 41" (as opposed to on US 41), it's at least wildly misleading. Eagle Harbor is two miles as the crow flies (and farther by road) from US41, as can be seen by mapping the coordinates.  A better location would be from the state of Michigan, which states that Holy Redeemer is at the "west end of Center Street" in Eagle Harbor, Michigan.  Andrew Jameson (talk) 19:16, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Houghton County Traction Company Ahmeek Streetcar Station is not in Allouez, Michigan. It is, as the name of the structure implies, in Ahmeek, Michigan (which is in Allouez Township, but not in the village of Allouez).  Likewise, the co-ordinates for this structure are wrong (see below). Andrew Jameson (talk) 06:07, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Central Mine Methodist Church is not "about a mile north of US-41". It's more like 1/4 mile.  A better description would be "On Old Stage Rd." Andrew Jameson (talk) 06:07, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
 * The Savings Bank Building in Marquette, MI is listed at "125 West Washington Street." This is incorrect, but unfortunately echoed by almost every NRHP reference I can find.  The structure is actually on the southeast corner of Washington and Front Streets, which would make the address either on East Washington Street (and an even number at that), or on South Front Street.  The correct address seems to be 101 South Front Street (see image in linked article). Andrew Jameson (talk) 19:21, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
 * The Gwinn Model Town Historic District is listed as being located in Forsyth, Michigan. There is no municipality of Forsyth.  The model town is located in Forsyth Township, Michigan, or, more exactly, in Gwinn, Michigan. Andrew Jameson (talk) 12:17, 30 December 2009 (UTC)
 * The Methodist Episcopal Church Parsonage in Ann Arbor, Michigan (National Register of Historic Places listings in Washtenaw County, Michigan) is listed at 322 E. Washington. It should be at 332 E. Washington.  Normally one wouldn't be too concerned about an address off by only 10, but in this case, the structure at 322 E. Washington is the Jacob Hoffstetter House, itself also on the Register. Andrew Jameson (talk) 11:35, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
 * The Michigan Theater (Ann Arbor, Michigan) is listed at "521-109 E. LIberty St." (with the capital "I"). Not only does "521-109" not make sense, the Michigan Theater website itself lists the address as 603 E. Liberty. Andrew Jameson (talk) 11:55, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
 * The Durant-Dort Carriage Company Office is listed at 315 W. Water St.; it should be 316. Here's one ref of many. Andrew Jameson (talk) 20:57, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
 * The Kewawenon Mission in Baraga County is listed as being on Peter Marksman Rd. It's not.  Per the state of Michigan, the address is 227 Front Street, between Whirl-I-Gig Road and Peter Marksman Rd.  However, "Front Street" is actaully "Zeba Rd". Andrew Jameson (talk) 12:24, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't think this is wrong, per se, but the Eagle Harbor Schoolhouse in Keweenaw COunty is listed as being located at "Block 10." THat's pretty much useless as far as location; a better description, per the state of Michigan, is "Third and Center Streets." Andrew Jameson (talk) 12:42, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
 * The Munro-M.A. Hanna Mining Company Office Building in National Register of Historic Places listings in Iron County, Michigan is listed at 702 N. Fourth Street, which is clearly wrong. The correct address per current occupant Hebert Construction is 107 Fourth St. Andrew Jameson (talk) 15:49, 17 October 2010 (UTC)
 * The Ten Curves Road – Manistique River Bridge is listed as being in Gemfask Township, Michigan, it should be in Germfask Township, Michigan (note the R in GeRmfask). Andrew Jameson (talk) 11:09, 19 November 2011 (UTC)
 * The Old US-41 – Backwater Creek Bridge is listed as as being in Barage Township, Michigan. It should be in Baraga Township, Michigan (note trailing A). Andrew Jameson (talk) 11:00, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
 * The William J. Tully House in Iron River, Michigan is listed at 419 W Cayuga Street. THe street number should be 519, as confirmed by the state of Michigan and Google street view. Andrew Jameson (talk) 12:10, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
 * The M-28 – Tahquamenon River Bridge is listed as being in Chippawa Township, Michigan; it should be in Chippewa Township, Michigan. Andrew Jameson (talk) 10:38, 8 May 2012 (UTC)
 * The Parker Road – Charlotte River Bridge is listed as being in Burce Township, Michigan; it should be in Bruce Township, Michigan
 * The Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church (Petoskey, Michigan) is listed at "610 Petoskey Street"; it should be at "810 Petoskey Street" per the nomination form (and can be confirmed with Google street view). Andrew Jameson (talk) 10:31, 14 March 2017 (UTC)

Address Issues (Moved after Listing)

 * The Elwood Bar in Detroit was originally built at 2100 Woodward Avenue. In 1997 the structure was moved to 300 Adams.  NRIS address and geo-coordinates still reflect the 2100 Woodward site. Andrew Jameson (talk) 11:27, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
 * In Detroit, the Century Building and Little Theatre (now the Gem Theatre) was moved to 333 Madison.
 * Elmwood (Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan) was moved from its original location of 705 East Portage Avenue to its current location at 435 East Water Street, next to the John Johnston House in 1979.

 * The Forrest J. Stimpson House in Cheboygan County, Michigan, according to a contact at the Mackinaw Area Historical Society, "was removed from site and left in the woods at Trails End Road and changed dramatically." Another house has been built in its place. Andrew Jameson (talk) 11:45, 31 October 2012 (UTC)
 * In Detroit, the Bagley Memorial Fountain was located at Woodward and Monroe Avenues in Detroit, Michigan when originally listed, but is now located in Cadillac Square.
 * In Jackson County, the Kentucky Homestead (now the Clark Lake Community Center) was located at 6740 Kentucky Avenue when listed, but is now located at 3740 Ocean Beach Road.

 * In Detroit, the Mackenzie House, part of the Wayne State University Buildings, was moved from its original location on Cass to a new location within the same block to face Forest, in April 2019.
 * In Kalamazoo, the sculptural element of the Fountain of the Pioneers was removed from its place in Bronson Park and placed into storage (and is apparently unlikely to come back out). Delisted 2019. Andrew Jameson (talk) 17:11, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
 * The SS City of Milwaukee was originally located in Elberta, Michigan (in Benzie County) when listed in 1990. In 2000, the ship was moved to Manistee, Michigan (in Manistee County). The NPS has apparently recognized the relocation (see this list of vessels, and the NRIS has been updated to reflect the new city location (Manistee), but has not been updated to reflect the new county location (also Manistee), or the street address. Andrew Jameson (talk) 16:47, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
 * In Huron County, one of the contributing structures in the Huron City Historic District is the Point aux Barques United States Life-Saving Service Station. The station was moved to Huron City in 1964 and included in the historic district. However, in 2017, the building was moved back to its original location, over a mile away near the Pointe aux Barques Light (also on the Register). Andrew Jameson (talk) 07:30, 21 April 2021 (UTC)

Architect name issues
The architect of the Dixboro United Methodist Church is listed as "Abraham Copper;" it should be "Araham Cooper."

The Antrim County Courthouse architect is listed as "Jen C. Peterson;" it should be JenS C. Peterson. (cite) Andrew Jameson (talk) 08:18, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

Other issues (besides coordinates)

 * Holland Reformed Protestant Dutch Church: Reported by User:Dudemanfellabra at wt:NRHP While working a list in my userspace, I came across Holland Reformed Protestant Dutch Church (#90001243) in Ottawa County, Michigan. It's not listed on the county list, but when it is searched in Elkman's tool, it shows up as "DR" (Date received, pending nomination) with a date of July 20, 1990. This page from the Michigan State Historic Sites Online database says that the building was listed on the register on August 23, 1990. That would seem to imply that the NRHP had the nomination from July 20 to August 23, after which the listing was approved, but the NRIS database wasn't updated? The church is included on the weekly list of actions taken 8/20/90-8/24/90, which can be found on page 76 of this pdf. Should I report this to WP:NRIS info issues MI?--Dudemanfellabra (talk) 23:42, 29 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, please do. Nation-wide, there are a fair number of cases, probably a few dozen, just like this, where locals/state/others believe/know that a place was NRHP-listed, but the NRIS database still shows as "DR".   In many/most of these cases we can even find the Weekly Announcement that the National Register puts out which shows the listing happening a few months later.  The National Register should be pretty receptive to fixing NRIS for these cases, if we collect them and report them systematically.  My last efforts to report NRIS errors didn't result in changes;  a new effort to report NRIS errors to a higher level in the National Park Service is probably called for. -- do  ncr  am  15:42, 30 May 2011 (UTC)


 * First off, Doncram, can you check your 2010 version of the NRIS? Maybe they've already corrected it? If not, I'll go ahead and put it on that page.--Dudemanfellabra (talk) 16:09, 30 May 2011 (UTC)


 * I attach approximately zero probability to the likelihood that the National Register would have corrected its records on that one during 2009-2010, given no request from us to do so, and given very little changes on their part ever. I have observed them doing some updating in response to my/our requests, and in response to some other parties' requests (for example an address correction that I know was reported by a New York State historical society), but otherwise, zippo gets changed.


 * I'd look it up in the 2010 NRIS, but it's not terribly easy to do so for me; I do not have a lookup webpage set up and would have to run a database program, on the computer where I have that database program (not with me now).


 * Another option is to look in www.nationalregisterofhistoricplaces.com, which has updated to the 2010 version of NRIS. At NRHP.COM's Ottawa county Michigan page, it shows the place with listing date in 1990.  I thought that would state a specific day-date of July 20, 1990, which would verify that NRIS's 2010 version does not reflect any update (and would be consistent with NRHP.COM ignoring listed vs. delisted vs. other status).  But NRHP.COM seems to have chosen now to just report year-dates, so the available info does not rule out the small possibility that you wonder about.


 * I'll just paste the info over to wp:NRIS info issues MI. It can be an open question there (as for all other NRIS information issues), whether the National Register has amazingly chosen to update on its own, without public request and pressure. -- do  ncr  am  18:23, 30 May 2011 (UTC)


 * The Ontonagon Lighthouse is listed with a "built" date of 1852. According to all the citations I can find, the first lighthouse built there, a wooden structure, was built in 1852.  The current brick lighthouse was actually constructed in 1866. Andrew Jameson (talk) 10:03, 22 December 2011 (UTC)


 * Keweenaw National Historical Park is listed in the NRIS as being listed on 10/27/1972. However, it wasn't established until 10/27/1992 (exactly 20 years later). The 1966–1978 listings do not show the KNHP, and unfortunately, the online copy of the 1992 weekly announcements is missing entries for the weeks of Oct 23, Oct 30, and Nov 6, so it cannot be positively confirmed there. Chris857 (talk) 16:22, 21 August 2013 (UTC)


 * The William Treadwell House is listed with an 1803 year of construction. It was actually built in the 1860s - probably 1863. Andrew Jameson (talk) 12:50, 16 December 2013 (UTC)


 * The Giles J. Gibbs Building (Sugar Bowl) is listed with a built date of 1916. Not only is that completely mismatched with the architectural style of the building, it is also three years after Giles J. Gibbs died. However, 1916 is the date that the "Sugar Bowl" soda fountain was opened in the building.  As near as I can figure from sources available, the actual date of construction of the building is 1867, while the (also historically significant) soda fountain interior dates from 1916. Andrew Jameson (talk) 18:59, 28 December 2013 (UTC)


 * The First Methodist Episcopal Church of Pokagon is listed with a "built" date of 1913. That was actually the date of the first performance of the hymn "The Old Rugged Cross," which took place in the church.  The actual construction date was either c. 1862 (the construction date of the building as a barn) or 1876 (the date when it was enlarged and remodeled into a church). Andrew Jameson (talk) 12:45, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
 * In fact, there is no such thing as an NRIS "built" date, but the NRIS summary page lists a "Significant year" parameter, and certainly 1913 is a significant year. This is not an NRIS issue. kennethaw88 • talk 01:46, 6 October 2019 (UTC)


 * The Ogilvie Building is listed with a "built" date of 1903. This comes from the original 1987 nomination, when Ogilvie Building was listed in the NRHP under the incorrect name "Schlichting Building," and with incorrect historical information. A subsequent set of additional documentation was submitted in 2000, which corrected both the name (to "Ogilvie Building") and the construction date (to 1885). The name has been corrected in the NRIS, but not the date. Andrew Jameson (talk) 12:01, 21 December 2017 (UTC)

Delisting Issue

 * In Kalamazoo County, Engine House No. 3 (Kalamazoo, Michigan) (refnum 83000857) has been erroneously stricken from the NRIS, likely being confused with The Harriett (refnum 83000057), located in  Indianapolis, Indiana.

Coordinates issues
NOTE: It is not important to list coordinates issues, as they probably will not be reported to the National Register for fixing. The NRIS coordinates that we work with in county list-articles are not necessarily the most uptodate version of coordinates. These should just be corrected. --doncram (talk) 17:18, 24 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Houghton County Traction Company Ahmeek Streetcar Station is mapped in Allouez, rather than Ahmeek (note this is probably a real issue, see above). Correct coords: 47 17 48 N, 88 23 42 W Andrew Jameson (talk) 06:16, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Greenmead Farms in Wayne County is listed at 42°26′17″N 83°27′5″W, it should be 42°26′17″N 83°25′5″W﻿. (Looks like a typo) Andrew Jameson (talk) 11:41, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
 * The Phillip and Maria Hasselbach Dingledey House in Wayne County is listed at 42°19′0″N 83°26′55″W, it should be 42°19′6″N 83°26′55″W. Andrew Jameson (talk) 12:51, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Eustace Hall in the National Register of Historic Places listings in Ingham County, Michigan is listed at 42.69889°N, -84.4475°W. It should be at 42.7325°N, -84.47972°W. Andrew Jameson (talk) 14:22, 5 May 2010 (UTC)
 * The Ann Arbor Central Fire Station is listed at 42.28167°N, -83.73444°W. A better location is 42.28167°N, -83.74639°W. Andrew Jameson (talk) 11:39, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
