Wednesday Mystery Spot

Dusty D has been torturing her friend BF all day by dawdling and dawdling and dawdling on posting today's Mystery Spot. The poor man visited the blog twice, just to see if it were up. Was I industriously posting it? No, I was being a lazy slug. Well, maybe "torturing" isn't the right word. Likely he wasn't "tortured"; perhaps "exhibiting mild interest" is more like it. Maybe "bored, will look at anything" is more accurate. At any rate, here we go.

Last week's Mystery Spot was made slightly easier by the fact that I used the address as the jpeg name. That's MENSA material right there. But I didn't do it this time!! So there.


This picture is the old office building for the Detroit, Ypsilanti, Ann Arbor and Jackson railway, later the D. J. & C. railroad. It was at 3 River Street near Michigan Avenue. The actual waiting room, the downtown stop, and the freight depot were at 13 Washington Street. Thomas and cmadler nailed it.

All day today Dusty D has been sneaking peeks at the weather radar in the hopes that the promising big angry red blobs skimming past Chicago would make it here. Phooey, they did not (and I'm sitting here in my un-AC'd home with a wet dish towel on the back of my neck as I type this, which actually works surprisingly well). But perhaps it's just as well those blobs fizzled out, or we might have had something like this:




But where in town did this cataclysm happen? Take your best guess and good luck!
