It definitely appears that the Ross house contained two residences. I always thought of a duplex as a side-by-side home; this one appears to be what I would call flats with a single entrance but then one story belonging to one family and another story belonging to the other. Here’s the photo that I think the previous poster was referring to. There appears to be just one front door, but two addresses [[3760 and 3762) on either side of it. Growing up in Detroit, I do remember some homes in this general neighborhood where you would come into a common entryway and then go upstairs to another entrance for the upper flat or go through a door in the foyer to the lower flat.
ignore the number that appears at the bottom of the photo; that was simply the address I entered to get onto the street. It looks like this house is almost directly across the street from the one owned by Florence Ballard.
i’m sorry these didn’t reproduce better, you can blow them up but then of course the numbers are hard to distinguish.
