Newberry and Mcmillian building, later known as the Equity Building. Unsure what exactly happened to it, but it did reside next to the Norton Hotel which was torn down in 1958 to make way for the Michigan Consolidated Gas Building. This picture was taken in c1918. Before the New+Mc building, the Rotunda built by E & AC Fisher was here. I haven’t found any sort of picture of it though.
