- Line of uniformed police officers, holding night sticks, stands in front of the Book Cadillac Hotel in Detroit, Michigan during sit-down strike. "To prevent further sitdowns, the Hotel Association countered by announcing at 4 a.m., the following morning, a "lock-out" of all employees in the downtown's major hotels, but before the buildings could be cleared the Waiters and Waitresses Union led a bold invasion of the Book Cadillac Hotel, led by organizer Floyd Loew, 60 union activists approached the hotel just before dawn, only to find the street entrances blocked by police, only two patrolmen guarded the employees' entrance on the alley, "so we hollered, Let's go" as Loew recollected the event, "and rushed in and filled the alley so quick the other policemen couldn't get to what was happening," pushing the patrolmen aside and entering the building, the union contingent, joined by waitresses and other employees still on duty, barricaded themselves inside the Esquire Room," from Working Detroit: The Making of a Union Town, by Steve Babson.

- Corner view of the Fort Shelby Hotel on West Lafayette Boulevard in Detroit, Michigan, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. "The Fort Shelby dates to 1916, with a 22-story tower designed by architect Albert Kahn added in 1927. The hotel closed in the 1970s and was thought by many to be a candidate for demolition before Detroit-area real estate investors Emmett Moten, Leo Phillips and others teamed with Doubletree to bring the property back from the dead," from Detroit Free Press article, "Historic Fort Shelby Hotel to reopen as Doubletree," by John Gallagher. "The building was designed by the Chicago firm of Richard E. Schmidt, Garden, & Martin and cost $890,000. 450 guest rooms would be contained within a 10 floor steel framed structure. The exterior was tapestry brick and cut stone," from Forgotten Detroit website.
