About Old Redford
A neighborhood that stretches from Five Points east to Greenfield Road and
from 8 Mile Road to Schoolcraft Road, Old Redford encompasses approximately 8 to
10 square miles of land. It was originally a township outside of the city
limits, but was annexed in 1926. Much of the housing stock near the center of
the area is a mixture of early 1900s to 1940s homes. The area was serviced by a
streetcar until the end of the Detroit street railway system in the 1950s. the
main commercial intersection is at Grand River Avenue and Lahser Road. Near this
intersection is the Redford Theater, which is now over 75 years old and still
showing movies with the accompaniment of the original Barton theater organ.
