A little more about The Green House

The Green House tells the story of several residents of a rooming house in Detroit, how they got to know one another, and how they impacted each other’s lives. And oh—the story is made more interesting because at least one of the inhabitants in the boarding house may turn out to be a ghost.

At the   outset of the twentieth century, demand for a new mode of transportation   turned Detroit, Michigan, into a mecca for the production of automobiles. Workers   moved to Motown from the Deep South lured by high wages in an expanding   industry. Others chose to live in this thriving city in response to their own   unique needs. Many of these newcomers came by themselves and needed low-cost housing.   Over the first quarter of the twentieth century, numerous apartments and   boarding houses were constructed to respond to that need. 

The Green House was   one of those boarding houses. The setting   for this story is the early 1960s during Detroit’s manufacturing heyday. Its   players are the residents who live in a three-story rooming house called The   Green House.
