Eye for design

Chris Wolf of East Lansing was the first person to correctly identify the Feb. 3 “Eye for Design” as “the wonderful staircase of the small office building at 919 East Grand River.” Rather than hiding the stairs in a typical vertical shaft, Lansing-based architect Charles V. Opdyke chose to celebrate the form, placing the sculptural steps on full display behind sizeable glass windows. The Merten-Graham Office Building was designed in 1960.

The first person to correctly identify the location of the detail above, which is in Lansing, will receive a City Pulse Eye for Design mug. Send your answer to debollman@comcast.net by Wednesday.
