With Covid-19 infection rates escalating to record numbers, we will suspend tours beginning Tues, November 17th through to the end of February.
As we are all staying near to our homes and practicing social distancing, we have put together all of the Alden B. Dow designed Midland buildings from our database to share with you. Of course you can search the Mid-Century Modern Midland website or apps and do the same things for any of the Mid-Century structures in Midland, but this way you have all of Mr. Dow’s work before you to take a virtual tour from the comfort and beauty of your own home. Enjoy the work that began the Mid-Century Modern influence in Midland and helped to inspire one of America’s more architecturally significant communities!!! Enjoy
Designated a National Historic Landmark in 1989, the Alden B Dow Home and Studio continues to engage the imagination and elicits emotional responses in all who experience this powerful statement of Mid-Twentieth Century Modern architecture. Planted into an encompassing pond, the Home and Studio is alive with reflective light, soaring roof lines, diverging angles, brilliant color and the perfect balance of enticement and tranquility. It truly is an “oasis of architecture and inspiration.” Schedule your visit for architectural tours, educational programs, Michigan history and much more.
