Rehab Addict Nicole Curtis has completed the interior renovations on the Ransom Gillis house, and now all that's left to focus on is the exterior. The finished brickwork, new slate roof, iron cresting, and ornate stained glass windows make this house truly unique. With the help of local volunteers, the exterior landscaping comes together swiftly in preparation for the open house. Then Detroiters line up around the block to see the restored majesty of one of Detroit's most iconic mansions.
