The Quirk Mansion

I have been in love with the Quirk Mansion, in Ypsilanti since I laid eyes on it. This place is a gem of the Second Empire style. The floral roof tiles, the mansard roof, the tower, sigh...
I dont know a ton about the place, it was once the home of the Quirk family, became Ypsilanti's City Hall, is now an office building and it may be haunted.

I wonder what it must have been like when it was a private residence. It seems like it would have been pretty amazing as a home. I would love to know if there are any photos out there of it from that time and to know more about the ghost(s)!
Here is a small wiki page about it.
