Pochelon Building
Here is the Pochelon Building on Farmer street in Downtown Detroit. Not much can be found online for this building, but from what I've read, this building is named for Albert Pochelon, who was a florist who came to Detroit in the Late 1800s from Germany, and was the secretary for FTD Florists for a bit (info on Albert Pochelon via Google Books). As of now, the building is up for sale. This building is right across Farmer from the Water Board Building downtown. Does anyone else know of any other uses for this buildings?
