This authentic 1960s color photograph captures a clear view of Washington Boulevard in downtown Detroit, Michigan, in 1967. The image features the bronze Christopher Columbus monument on the left, which stood at this location from 1910 until 1987 before being moved to Jefferson and Randolph. An iconic green and white Checker Cab is parked in the foreground, while a Greyhound bus and several period sedans navigate the wide thoroughfare. The background showcases the city’s rich architectural history, including the Statler Hilton and several large commercial buildings adorned with vintage advertisements for “Michigan Bank” and “Fly Delta Jets.” Ornate multi-globe streetlamps line the boulevard, which remains a central artery of the city’s downtown district. This high-resolution scan documents the intersection of Michigan transit and historic public art during the late sixties. All our images are available as royalty-free instant downloads for use in books, media, and creative projects – or make your own prints for home, work, or as a truly unique gift.
