Louis Kamper Apartments - Photos

Front facade of the Louis Kamper Apartment Building as seen from West Grand River Blvd.

The exterior looks much like it did when it opened in 1926

The building is ornamented with Art Deco influenced Gothic motifs.

But it derives its visual impact mainly from the vertical emphasis of the continuous piers between the windows.

The building tapers at the top with the use of minor setbacks and is topped by an ornate parapet wall.
