The city of Detroit has been awarded a $500,000 National Park Service grant that will help expand a historic site that was key in the civil rights movement. The grant will help expand the district that includes the Dr. Ossian Sweet home and preserves two more adjacent homes on the site. In 1925, Sweet, an African American physician, bought the house at 2905 Garland Ave. on the city's east side. It was a segregated White neighborhood.
