An enormous blow to independent retail. Shaman Drum was rite of passage into the University. That small odd door lead up a set of stairs where you would navigate a complicated maze of rooms and corridors stacked to the ceiling with books. Each room had a sales associate to get your books. The lines were long every year, so it was unimaginable why they were struggling. I guess another death of a book store by amazon

West Hall, formerly Engineering in the old days, now holds the Anthropology Department, although they still continue to do hurricane simulations on the ground floor. When you pass through the arch, you emerge on the other side in the South University Business District

Emil Lorch Building, formerly architecture in the old days, now holds the economics department

Martha Cook Residence. The interior is straight out of Harry Potter. It's mad beautiful inside

President's House. There was four of these italianate homes constructed on campus shortly after its refounding in 1837. They were only meant to house faculty. The other 3 were demolished in the late 1800's as the U grew, but this one remains. The U was founded in Detroit in 1817, failed, left and refound in [then] Annarbour in 1837. Still, they were pretty broke which explains why the construction of this home is very simple

Inside the Library. The general public is allowed to use this facility, but the underground levels built in the 70's are off limits to everyone except for students who are in the Law School.

Need an idea of what the city looks like above? Check here for a good aerial. The University is center, and downtown is at the far left. The State/liberty area is where tall towers are.
