233 Panorama - Original is 16027 x 5147 - Kirk in the Hills Presbyterian (1958) in Bloomfield Township, Michigan was designed by architects George D. Mason; Wirt Rowland had made preliminary designs for the church before World War II, but Rowland died in 1946 and the Mason design was not based on the Rowland sketches. Services were held in the Undercroft beginning in 1952 and continued during the construction of the church until a disastrous fire destroyed most of the roof. The Kirk held its first services in the sanctuary on November 23, 1958. The church itself is modeled after Scotland's Melrose Abbey. Set on 40 acres (160,000 m2) of beautifully landscaped lakeside grounds, Kirk in the Hills constitutes one of the finest examples of Gothic architecture in Southeastern Michigan.

253 The Calumet Theatre is a theater and opera house which was constructed in 1900. In 1898, the copper mining industry was booming, and the town had an enormous surplus in its treasury. The town council decided to spend some of the surplus on a theater. The theater hosted a large number of famous actors, musicians, and opera singers.[9] With the close of the mines, the theater became a movie theater and fell into general disrepair for many years. In 1975, the town began a large project to repair and restore the theater, which is now used for many local and touring productions. The theatre is a National Historic Landmark. Calumet, Michigan

607 Upon its completion the Michigan Theater could seat 4,050 patrons, In addition to films in its prime years, the theatre hosted performances of bands led by John Philip Sousa, Benny Goodman, Jimmy Dorsey and Harry James as well as live performances by The Marx Brothers, Betty Grable and Bob Hope.[4]
The theater ceased operations in 1976 after operating as a nightclub named The Michigan Palace. The office tenants threatened to leave unless they received adequate parking. To retain the tenants, building owners gutted and converted the theater into a parking structure. The theater could not be completely demolished and replaced by a parking structure because it is integral to the structure of the office building. The ornate plaster ceiling of the theater auditorium and grand lobby, at the ninth floor level, are still intact, as are parts of the mezzanine, the 2nd and 3rd balcony foyers and their staircases. The projection booth is also still intact.

778 The 800-seat National Theater, built in 1911, is the only known theatre designed by Albert Kahn and the oldest surviving theatre from the city's original theatre district of the 19th century. It operated as a movie theater until the 1920s, when competition from larger movie houses forced a change to a vaudeville venue. The National survived as a burlesque and adult entertainment theater until it closed in the 1970s.
The front facade of the National is dominated by an enormous arch flanked with twin towers and covered with white and blue terra cotta tiles. The facade has hundreds of lightbulbs built in, which accentuate the architectural features when lit. The National Theater is an outstanding example of Modernistic design, boasting a pair of terra cotta latticework towers, arched art glass windows, and colored Pewabic tiles on the facade.

800 Lee Plaza (Also known as the Lee Plaza Hotel or Lee Plaza Apartments) is a vacant high-rise apartment building in Detroit, Michigan... The building was designed by Charles Noble and constructed in 1929, it rises to 15 floors and is an excellent example of Art Deco architecture of the 1920s.
First built as an ornate high rise hotel along West Grand Boulevard, Lee Plaza was an upscale apartment with hotel services. Decorated with sculpture and tile outside, the structure rivaled the Book-Cadillac Hotel and Statler Hotel for architectural notice in Detroit during the 1920s. After economic contraction, the apartment's ownership changed several times, being used as a Senior Citizen's complex before finally closing as a residence in the early 1990s. During its years of vacancy, much of the artwork, internal wiring, fixtures and valuable material has been removed illegally by scavengers.

Decorated with sculpture and tile outside, the structure rivaled the Book-Cadillac Hotel and Statler Hotel for architectural notice in Detroit during the 1920s. After economic contraction, the apartment's ownership changed several times, being used as a Senior Citizen's complex before finally closing as a residence in the early 1990s. During its years of vacancy, much of the artwork, internal wiring, fixtures and valuable material has been removed illegally by scavengers.

860 Andrew Jackson Intermediate was a school located on the east side of Detroit. Jackson was designed by the firm of B.C. Wetzel & Co., with the main part of the school built in 1928.
Jackson is one of Detroit's more unique schools in terms of design, using orange brick, masonry quoins along the edges of the building, and balustrades along the roof. Two lanterns are located above the main entrances facing the street. Though large, they appear to be purely ornamental, and are empty. The layout is fairly typical of schools designed in the late 20's, with a main hallway along which classrooms are located, and wings located on the ends. Jackson has an extra classroom wing on the north side of the building, and a cafeteria wing on the south side. Located in the center are the auditorium, which took up two floors, and a library on the third floor. The plan allowed for easy expansion of the school should the need arise.

It is measured to be 21,000-square-foot (2,000 m2) and has 52 rooms (including 10 bathrooms), 218 windows, 20 fireplaces, and a secret vault in the dining room, an elevator, and numerous Tiffany glass windows. The Tiffany glass windows have been estimated to be worth more than the house itself. Architect : Gordon W. Lloyd.

1552 The Cathedral of Learning, a Pittsburgh landmark listed in the National Register of Historic Places, is the centerpiece of the University of Pittsburgh's main campus in the Oakland neighborhood of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States. Standing at 535 feet (163 m), the 42-story Late Gothic Revival Cathedral is the tallest educational building in the Western hemisphere and the second tallest university building (fourth tallest educationally-purposed building) in the world. It is also the second tallest gothic-styled building in the world. The Cathedral of Learning was commissioned in 1921 and ground was broken in 1926. The first class was held in the building in 1931 and its exterior finished in October 1934, prior to its formal dedication in June 1937.
Colloquially referred to as "Cathy" by Pitt students, the Cathedral of Learning is a steel frame structure overlaid with Indiana limestone and contains more than 2,000 rooms and windows. It functions as a primary classroom and administrative center of the university, and is home to the Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences and many of its departments, as well as the University Honors College. It served as home of the university's College of General Studies until its relocation to Posvar Hall in 2014. It houses many specialty spaces, including a studio theater, food court, study lounges, offices, computer and language labs, 30 Nationality Rooms, and a 1/2-acre (2,000 m2), 4-story-high, vaulted, gothic study and event hall.

1587 The Guaranty Building, now called the Prudential Building, is an early skyscraper in Buffalo, New York. It was completed in 1896 and was designed by Louis Sullivan and Dankmar Adler.
Sullivan's design for the building was based on his belief that "form follows function". He and Adler divided the building into four zones. The basement was the mechanical and utility area. Since this level was below ground, it did not show on the face of the building. The next zone was the ground-floor zone which was the public areas for street-facing shops, public entrances and lobbies. The third zone was the office floors with identical office cells clustered around the central elevator shafts. The final zone was the terminating zone, consisting of elevator equipment, utilities and a few offices.
The supporting steel structure of the building was embellished with terra cotta blocks. Different styles of block delineated the three visible zones of the building. Writing in his Kindergarten Chats, Sullivan said that a tall building "must be every inch a proud and soaring thing, rising in sheer exultation that from bottom to top it is a unit without a single dissenting line

Owen Bonawit, sculptures of the “Dawn Men” on the exterior buttresses by Lee Lawrie, and the large fresco at the front of the church by Katherine McEwen, the church was developed with meticulous care and aesthetic attention. Christ Church Cranbrook was consecrated on September 29, 1928. In the 78 years since its dedication, the church has flourished with approximately 900 families in membership and a wide variety of worship, fellowship, music, and outreach opportunities.
1612 Christ Church Cranbrook
Christ Church Cranbrook, as well as the Cranbrook educational community, was the brainchild of newspaper magnate George G. Booth and his wife, Ellen. The Booths bought a 175-acre farm in Bloomfield Hills , Michigan in 1904 and established a series of buildings beginning with their residence, Cranbrook House, in 1908, and an elementary school in the early twenties. In 1923, George Booth saw that a church was much needed in Bloomfield Hills as many residents were traveling to neighboring towns for worship services. He decided to establish an Episcopalian church as part of the Cranbrookcommunity. The designs of architectural firm Goodhue Associates were selected in 1924, and groundbreaking began in 1925.

1613 Temple Beth El is located in Bloomfield Township, Michigan, on a low rise adjacent to Telegraph Road, a wide and heavily traveled thoroughfare. Mature spruce and pine trees are present around the base of the structure to shield the worshippers from outside distractions. The unmistakable design of the sanctuary incorporates a tent-like form to recall the "Tent of Meeting" referenced in the Bible and the earliest places of worship used by the Jewish people. The cast-in-place concrete structure consists of two pairs of closely placed sloped columns, or tent poles, supporting curved ridge beams at the top of the structure and tied together by elliptical ring beams at the structure's base. Below the ring beam is a transparent curtain wall of clear glazing that gives the illusion, from the exterior and interior that the tent-form roof is hovering above the open sanctuary space. Between the ridge beams is a transparent skylight that provides natural light into the sanctuary and further emphasizes the "lightness" of the structure. Catenary steel cables suspended between the ridge and ring beams support the gentle curve of the lead-coated copper roof which soars some seventy feet above grade. The administrative offices, social halls and religious school are located in a one-story wing that extends north from the main entrance to the sanctuary on the building's west elevation. The Temple Beth El comprises approximately 112,500 square feet, and can accommodate up to eighteen hundred worshippers.

1618 St. Hedwig's was the third Polish parish established on Detroit's west side. Bishop Foley appointed Father John Mueller pastor on July 3, 1902. St. Casmir's was the first Polish parish on the west side, founded in 1882—even before Sweetest Heart of Mary. And then St. Francis de Assisi was the second Polish parish on the west side established in 1889. As frequently happened in Detroit and elsewhere, Polish Catholics disagreed strongly with the bishop. St. Hedwig's Parish was dissolved in 1905 until a new group of priests more loyal to Detroit bishops—Polish Franciscans—were recruited to staff and manage St. Hedwig's Parish. Father Eustace Bartoszewicz was appointed pastor in 1912, and five years later, the magnificent church that you see was completed. Later, the parish established a large elementary school and then a high school that survived for 49 years until the out-migration of Poles and others from this neighborhood led to its closing. The elementary school closed five years later. Perhaps surprisingly, this neighborhood became a destination point for newly-arriving immigrants from Mexico. The priests of the parish, rather than offering Mass in Polish as they did a century ago, now serve the needs of their Spanish-speaking parishioners. Interestingly, the parish school is still an educational facility now managed by the city's public school system and offering instruction to Spanish-speaking students.

1662 St. Josaphat Roman Catholic Church is a Roman Catholic church located at 715 East Canfield Street in Detroit, Michigan.
In 1889, the Polish community of St. Albertus Roman Catholic Church was outgrowing the capacity of the church, and the parish of St. Josaphat was started on June first[3] to serve the burgeoning community.[4]The church is named after St. Josaphat Kuntsevych, a Greek Catholic priest, who became archbishop of Polotsk, Poland (now Belarus) in 1617.[5] He was martyred in 1623 and canonized in 1867, thus it is likely that this parish, founded only 22 years later, was among the first to bear his name. The church was located on Canfield not far west of the Sweetest Heart Of Mary Roman Catholic Church. It is possible that the choice of location was intended to compete with Sweetest Heart, which was at the time a Polish Catholic church unsanctioned by the diocese. On February 2, 1890, parishioners dedicated the first building of St. Josaphat, a combination church and school.[3] However, in the next decade, the church grew to over 1,000 families under the leadership of Father Razadkowski.[5] In response, Razadkowski raised funds to build the current church. The structure opened in 1901, along with a rectory and janitor's home. A school was built in the 1920s. By 1960, the Polish community that had once attended the church had scattered to the suburbs. The school was closed and demolished, and St. Josaphat struggled with dwindling membership and the upkeep of the aging church. However, the parish began a building rehabilitation program, and it continues to serve the Polish community.[4] In 2004, St. Josaphat became the home for the Archdiocese of Detroit's first regular celebrations of the Tridentine Latin Mass since the liturgical reforms following the Second Vatican Council. Attendance at weekend Masses has significantly increased as people from all over southeastern Michigan travel to St. Josaphat for this liturgy. St. Josaphat has also developed a choir and music program to accompany the Tridentine Mass. Since Pope Benedict XVI in 2007 widened permission for the 1962 form to be used as an extraordinary form of the Roman Rite, St. Josaphat has added weekday and Holy Day Masses and special events for its Latin Mass Community.

St. Josaphat has also developed a choir and music program to accompany the Tridentine Mass.

1667 St. Josaphat Roman Catholic Church is a Roman Catholic church located at 715 East Canfield Street in Detroit, Michigan.
In 1889, the Polish community of St. Albertus Roman Catholic Church was outgrowing the capacity of the church, and the parish of St. Josaphat was started on June first[3] to serve the burgeoning community.[4]The church is named after St. Josaphat Kuntsevych, a Greek Catholic priest, who became archbishop of Polotsk, Poland (now Belarus) in 1617.[5] He was martyred in 1623 and canonized in 1867, thus it is likely that this parish, founded only 22 years later, was among the first to bear his name. The church was located on Canfield not far west of the Sweetest Heart Of Mary Roman Catholic Church. It is possible that the choice of location was intended to compete with Sweetest Heart, which was at the time a Polish Catholic church unsanctioned by the diocese. On February 2, 1890, parishioners dedicated the first building of St. Josaphat, a combination church and school.[3] However, in the next decade, the church grew to over 1,000 families under the leadership of Father Razadkowski.[5] In response, Razadkowski raised funds to build the current church. The structure opened in 1901, along with a rectory and janitor's home. A school was built in the 1920s. By 1960, the Polish community that had once attended the church had scattered to the suburbs. The school was closed and demolished, and St. Josaphat struggled with dwindling membership and the upkeep of the aging church.

1673 The Historic Trinity Lutheran Church is a church located in downtown Detroit, Michigan. It occupies the Trinity Evangelical Lutheran Church complex, located at 1345 Gratiot Avenue. The Trinity congregation was formed in 1850, when members of St. Matthew's Lutheran Church, a German-speaking congregation, broke from the main body following the excommunication of another member. Services were first held in the chapel of Christ Episcopal Church, located at the corner of Jefferson and Hastings. Soon, the congregation bought the chapel of the Western Seaman's Friend Society of Woodbridge Street, and moved it to Rivard and Larned. This building quickly proved too small, the congregation built a new brick church at Gratiot and Rivard in 1866. This area, surrounding Eastern Market, was at the time home to a large German population and a natural fit for Trinity. Around this time, many schools, missions, and other congregations were begun by Trinity throughout the region. In total, 132 Lutheran parishes in southeast Michigan can be traced to Trinity. In 1905, the congregation built a new school and social hall near the church. However, the community around Trinity soon changed as families left the downtown area, and the flow of new German immigrants stopped. Trinity began offering English services in addition to those in German. In the late 1920s, Trinity began considering renovation of its 1866 structure. However, congregant Charles Gauss stepped forward and offered to finance the building of a new church.[6] The old church was demolished, and the cornerstone of the current church was laid in 1929 with the dedication held on February 15, 1931. After World War II, the population of downtown Detroit began moving in droves to the suburbs, and many Detroit churches, including Trinity, lost membership. However, then-pastor Gilbert Theodore Otte remained firm in keeping the church in the downtown area. The city of Detroit recognized the 1931 church structure for its historical significance in 1979, by the state of Michigan in 1982, and was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. Membership, however, declined, with only 112 church members in 1981. In 1983, Rev. David Eberhard became pastor, a post he would hold until 2015, and instituted additional programs that helped triple membership in five years. The church continues to be a gathering place for Detroit Lutherans, with over 2100 members in 2012. Today the parish operates under the Historic Trinity name under the umbrella of the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod.

1679 St. Charles Borromeo Roman Catholic Church is a church located at the corner of Baldwin Avenue and St. Paul Avenue in Detroit, Michigan In the late 1850s, Belgian Catholics immigrated to Detroit and settled in the eastside neighborhoods near Gratiot and Baldwin.

As Detroit grew, the parish grew along with it, with French, German, Irish, Scotch, and English immigrant congregants in addition to the original Belgians. By 1920, the congregation numbered over 3000. By the 1930s, the school's population also included many Catholic children of Syrian and Italian immigrants. In 1912, the two-story rectory and school was designed and built by Van Leyen & Schilling. In 1918, Peter Dederichs was awarded a contract to build an "edifice of Romanesque style for religious use". Just four years after the church was completed, it was expanded to meet the needs of the growing congregation.

1700 The Woolworth Building is an early American skyscraper located at 233 Broadway in Manhattan, New York City. Designed by architect Cass Gilbert, it was the tallest building in the world from 1913 to 1930, with a height of 792 feet (241 m). More than a century after its construction, it remains one of the 100 tallest buildings in the United States as well as one of the 30 tallest buildings in New York City.
Located in Manhattan's Tribeca neighborhood, the Woolworth Building is bounded by Broadway to its east, Park Place to its north, and Barclay Street to its south. The 60-story structure consists of a 30-story tower situated atop a 30-story base. Its facade is mostly decorated with terracotta (though the lower portions are limestone) and contains thousands of windows. The ornate lobby contains various sculptures, mosaics, and architectural touches. The structure was also designed with several amenities and attractions, including a now-closed observatory on the 57th floor and a private swimming pool in the basement.
The skyscraper was originally conceived by F. W. Woolworth, the founder of a brand of popular five-and-ten-cent stores, as a headquarters for his eponymous company. Woolworth planned the skyscraper jointly with the Irving National Exchange Bank, which also agreed to use the structure as its headquarters. The Woolworth Building had originally been planned as a 12- to 16-story commercial building, but underwent several revisions to its plans during its planning process. Its final height was not decided upon until January 1911. Construction started in 1910, and it was completed two years later. The building officially opened on April 24, 1913.

1712 Loren Andrus was born in 1816 in New York, and moved with his parents to Washington Township in 1828. In 1837, when he was 21, Loren Andrus was taken on as an assistant engineer for the survey of the Clinton-Kalamazoo Canal. Andrus married Lucina Davis, and in 1849 the couple set up a farm on a large tract of land where this house now stands. In the late 1850s, the more prominent local residents spurred a small building boom, with each person striving to put up the most impressive residence. Andrus caught the bug, and in 1858 offered his brother-in-law, local architect and carpenter David Stewart, a steep sum to quickly design and build a distinctive house.[3] Using Orson Squire Fowler's A Home For All as a guide, they began constructing this house, finishing in 1860.
Andrus was quite active in local cultural organizations, and the house served as a social center for the community. It was also used as a "station" on the Underground railway. In 1890, Lucinda Davis Andrus died. Loren Andrus sold the house in 1894 and moved to Detroit.
After Andrus's death, the house changed hands several times, and was even used as a restaurant in the late 1930s. In 1945, the Detroit Board of Education established Albert H. Schmidt Foundation Farm on the property to train high school and college students in agricultural techniques. The house served as a dormitory, and was operated by Wayne State University as an extension of their agricultural college. The house was scheduled to be torn down until William and Phyllis Hamilton bought the house and restored it. They turned it into a living museum with three generations of the Hamilton family living and working there. The house was later sold back into private hands and converted back into a single family residence.
It is now owned by the Friends of the Loren Andrus Octagon House, Inc., which bought it in 1987.

1716 The Whittier was constructed as an apartment hotel, meaning that tenants could rent an apartment, yet have access to services typically provided by a hotel. The Whittier was built at a time when the population boom in Detroit increased demand for housing. The developer selected a site near the Detroit River, in an area that was, until then, primarily used for exclusive upper-class homes.Construction began in 1921, and ran until 1927.
Over the years, the luxury hotel played host to luminaries such as Horace Dodge, Eleanor Roosevelt, Mae West, Frank Sinatra and The Beatles. During Prohibition, the hotel's convenient access to the Detroit River and Canada made it popular with underworld types, including the Purple Gang

The developer selected a site near the Detroit River, in an area that was, until then, primarily used for exclusive upper-class homes.Construction began in 1921, and ran until 1927.
Over the years, the luxury hotel played host to luminaries such as Horace Dodge, Eleanor Roosevelt, Mae West, Frank Sinatra and The Beatles. During Prohibition, the hotel's convenient access to the Detroit River and Canada made it popular with underworld types, including the Purple Gang

1737 Kosciusko County Courthouse
Construction of the new courthouse began in 1881 and was finished in 1884. The cornerstone was laid on May 25, 1882. It would take sixteen fully loaded semitrailers to haul all of the iron in the building. If the bricks were set out end to end they would extend about 85 miles. Enough plaster was used in the building to cover an entire football field. A path all the way to Leesburg could be made with the Indiana Olit limestone. The architect was T. J. Tolan and Joe Baker was the superintendent of construction. The tower was built by Joseph Marshall and all of the interior work was done by G. Hahne. The total cost of the courthouse was $197,799.65, by today’s standards, a real bargain.

1762 St. Josaphat Roman Catholic Church is a Roman Catholic church located at 715 East Canfield Street in Detroit, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982 and designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1985. Since 2013, it has been one of two churches that comprise Mother of Divine Mercy Parish.
In 1889, the Polish community of St. Albertus Roman Catholic Church was outgrowing the capacity of the church, and the parish of St. Josaphat was started on June first[3] to serve the burgeoning community. The church is named after St. Josaphat Kuntsevych, a Greek Catholic priest, who became archbishop of Polotsk, Poland (now Belarus) in 1617. He was martyred in 1623 and canonized in 1867, thus it is likely that this parish, founded only 22 years later, was among the first to bear his name.
The church was located on Canfield not far west of the Sweetest Heart Of Mary Roman Catholic Church. It is possible that the choice of location was intended to compete with Sweetest Heart, which was at the time a Polish Catholic church unsanctioned by the diocese. On February 2, 1890, parishioners dedicated the first building of St. Josaphat, a combination church and school.[3] However, in the next decade, the church grew to over 1,000 families under the leadership of Father Razadkowski.[5] In response, Razadkowski raised funds to build the current church. The structure opened in 1901, along with a rectory and janitor's home. A school was built in the 1920s.
By 1960, the Polish community that had once attended the church had scattered to the suburbs. The school was closed and demolished, and St. Josaphat struggled with dwindling membership and the upkeep of the aging church. However, the parish began a building rehabilitation program, and it continues to serve the Polish community.[4]
In 2004, St. Josaphat became the home for the Archdiocese of Detroit's first regular celebrations of the Tridentine Latin Mass since the liturgical reforms following the Second Vatican Council. This ceased in 2016, when responsibility for this service was entrusted to the Institute of Christ the King at the St. Joseph Oratory in the city.

1772 Detroit Water & Sewerage Department High Lift Building
Prior to 1880, the Board of Water Commissioners purchased a 56-acre tract on East Jefferson where the building you see is located. Shortly after 1900, it became clear that the area’s population and industrial activities were growing rapidly and that a vast amount of clean water would be needed. Indeed, by 1907, the city’s system was supplying an average of 160 gallons of water per day for every resident. Of course, much of that water was used by industries. Officials commissioned the Field, Hinchman and Smith firm to design a massive building for the pumps. The result is the very large, but appealing, High Lift building that you see.

1775 Michigan Theater - Ann Arbor
The Michigan Theater opened on January 5, 1928, and was at the time the finest theater in Ann Arbor. The theater not only showed movies, but also hosted vaudeville acts, live concerts, and touring stage plays. Over the years, Jack Benny, Bing Crosby, Paul Robeson, and Ethel Barrymore all appeared at the theater.[3]
During a renovation in 1956, many of the original ornate designs were destroyed. After a period of low attendance, the theater was threatened with demolition when its 50-year lease to Butterfield Theatres ran out in 1978, but members of the community and local organists helped raise funds to save and renovate the theater, returning it to its original design. A second screen, the Screening Room, with a state-of-the-art sound system, seating for 200, and the ability to project films digitally, was added in 1999.
The Michigan Theater is the current home of the annual Ann Arbor Film Festival, the Ann Arbor Symphony, and the Ann Arbor Concert Band. The theater has been named 2006 Outstanding Historic Theatre by the League of Historic American Theaters.[4] The theater also hosts a series of children's stage productions entitled "Not Just For Kids" and a concert series entitled "The Legends of Rock & Roll."

The history of the Wisconsin State Capitol is deeply intertwined with the state's political evolution. Originally located in Belmont and later in Madison, the state government saw the need for a grander and more permanent seat of power. The construction of the Capitol began in 1906 after a lengthy debate over its location, with Madison ultimately chosen as the site. Throughout its history, the Capitol has witnessed significant events in Wisconsin's political landscape, from the drafting of legislation to the inauguration of governors. Its architecture and historical significance continue to attract visitors, serving as a testament to Wisconsin's rich heritage and democratic ideals.
2005 The Wisconsin State Capitol, located in Madison, stands as an iconic symbol of the state's political history and architectural grandeur. Designed by George B.

2010 A contract signed in 1862 built the first Winona County Courthouse on the southeast corner of Third and Washington, just north of the current building, which replaced it in 1889.
Charles G. Maybury designed the 1889 courthouse in the Richardsonian Romanesque style. The building displays Victorian variety in its two unmatched towers, in the contrast between the Dresbach buff sandstone of its three stories and the Lake Superior brownstone trim, in the cut stone, and in its carvings.
The county started a sinking fund for this building in 1882. It was completed in 1889 at a cost of $120,000. James A. Tawney, a Winona attorney later elected to Congress and Chairman of the Ways & Means Committee, assisted Maybury with plans.
In addition to an architect, the budget allowed for walls of solid brick and stone, wood joists and iron lath in floors, plus two inches of concrete. It also provided for a galvanized iron cornice, French glass windows with stained glass transoms, black slate for the roof, copper flashings and gutters, terra cotta crestings and finials, and Cleveland blue sandstone steps. The main hall has heavy, carved, red oak woodwork and four- and five-foot wainscoting. Each main room has 16-foot ceilings and a fireplace with carved wood mantels and tile.
In 1970, the Winona County Courthouse became the first Minnesota courthouse to be placed on the National Register of Historic Places. However, its future was uncertain. In February 1971, District Judge Glenn E. Kelley, later a Minnesota Supreme Court Justice, denied a bid to save the building. At the end of the year, $1.1 million in bonds were approved for a controversial remodeling of the courthouse.
A plan was not approved until three years later, however. It called for making five floors where there had been three and retaining and cleaning the exterior. Total remodeling cost $2 million, which was partially paid for by a HUD grant and a Minnesota Resources Commission fund. Another $230,000 was spent in 1981 for roof repairs.
Early one morning in the fall of 2000, the inside of the building was destroyed when a ceiling collapsed and water pipes broke, sending hundreds of gallons of water pouring through the building's hallways, ceilings, and courtrooms. For three years, court operations were conducted in Winona's old middle school and other county offices moved to a former bank building.
The inside of the courthouse was repaired and much of it was restored to its original condition at a cost of $5.6 million. Another $1.5 million in restoration was done to the outside. The building was re-dedicated during a ceremony with the Minnesota Supreme Court and the Third Judicial District bench on Oct. 13, 2003.
2011 The National Farmers’ Bank of Owatonna was the first of eight midwestern small town banks that Louis Sullivan designed between 1907 and 1919. Sullivan referred to this group of banks as his “jewel boxes.” The Owatonna bank is the most famous of the group.
When Owatonna banker Carl Bennett decided in 1906 to construct a new bank, he sought out Sullivan because he wanted a unique kind of bank architecture, one that did not adhere to the tradition of temple-fronted Classical Revival buildings. Instead, Sullivan designed a brick cube with immense colored glass semicircular windows by Louis J. Millet, along with sinuous ornament in bright colored terra-cotta and cast iron both inside and out.
While the simple square brick exterior conveys a vault-like sense of permanence and security desirable in a bank, the exterior only hints at the elaborate interior. Sullivan’s chief draftsperson from 1899 to 1909, George Grant Elmslie, was responsible for much of the bank’s interior ornament and decorative scheme, which draws upon Prairie School imagery. The bank’s open plan banking room features rich terra-cotta and plaster ornament, and ornate stenciling in dozens of hues. Four immense cast-iron electric light fixtures called electroliers are major focal points of the main banking room. Sullivan and Elmslie even designed the door knobs, drinking fountains, and custom office furniture. Murals of dairy and harvest scenes by artist Oskar Gross can be found inside the interior arches. Besides the large open banking room, the interior spaces included a farmer’s exchange room, a women’s consultation room, a conference room, and a richly decorated president’s office.
When the nation’s farm economy collapsed in 1926, the National Farmers’ Bank failed. Subsequent owners made only minor alterations to the banking room until 1940, when a local contractor attempted to modernize the bank and, in the process, destroyed important terra-cotta decorative elements, installed fluorescent light fixtures, and sold Sullivan’s teller’s window wickets as scrap metal for eighty cents each. No architect was involved in this ill-conceived remodeling.
In 1955, a new bank president recognized a need for more space. Some thirty employees were working in a space designed for about a dozen people. The bank’s board looked into constructing an addition to the north, but that plan was not feasible because the owner of the property refused to sell. The bank then arranged to lease space in the building east of the bank, with an option to acquire the entire building within twenty years. At the same time, the bank commissioned a proposal by a Minneapolis firm that specialized in bank renovations.
The Minneapolis firm recommended a complete rearrangement of the banking room along with extensive remodeling of the entire bank building. Critics concerned about the fate of Sullivan’s building convinced the bank president to meet with a committee of architects from the Minnesota Society of Architects. At the committee’s recommendation, the bank hired Harwell Hamilton Harris of Fort Worth, Texas, to oversee the remodeling project. Harris, a well-respected architect who had worked with Richard Neutra in California, recommended changes that would preserve the character-defining historic features of Sullivan’s original design. This included extensive restoration of much of the ornament and art in the banking room, work that was completed by Italian artist Louis DeNardo of St. Paul.
The remodeling work was completed in 1958 at a cost of $250,000. Architectural historian James M. Fitch of Columbia University spoke at the rededication in July 1958—an event that drew national attention and was attended by architects from across the country. The national press and the architectural establishment regarded the remodeling of Sullivan’s Owatonna bank as farsighted during an era when old buildings were often torn down.
During the 1970s, the stained glass skylight in the banking room was restored. The name of the bank also changed, first to Northwestern Bank of Owatonna and some years later to Wells Fargo Bank. In 1982 and 1983, St. Paul architect Val Michelson and his associate David Bowers drew plans and oversaw further restoration of the banking room, bringing it closer to its original appearance. This work included matching forty-nine different colors to restore the wall stenciling.
The National Farmers’ Bank was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1976 and was honored in 1981 with a commemorative U.S. postage stamp. The bank is Sullivan’s only Minnesota building.

This included extensive restoration of much of the ornament and art in the banking room, work that was completed by Italian artist Louis DeNardo of St. Paul.
The remodeling work was completed in 1958 at a cost of $250,000. Architectural historian James M. Fitch of Columbia University spoke at the rededication in July 1958—an event that drew national attention and was attended by architects from across the country. The national press and the architectural establishment regarded the remodeling of Sullivan’s Owatonna bank as farsighted during an era when old buildings were often torn down.
During the 1970s, the stained glass skylight in the banking room was restored. The name of the bank also changed, first to Northwestern Bank of Owatonna and some years later to Wells Fargo Bank. In 1982 and 1983, St. Paul architect Val Michelson and his associate David Bowers drew plans and oversaw further restoration of the banking room, bringing it closer to its original appearance. This work included matching forty-nine different colors to restore the wall stenciling.
The National Farmers’ Bank was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1976 and was honored in 1981 with a commemorative U.S. postage stamp. The bank is Sullivan’s only Minnesota building.
2020 The National Farmers’ Bank of Owatonna was the first of eight midwestern small town banks that Louis Sullivan designed between 1907 and 1919. Sullivan referred to this group of banks as his “jewel boxes.” The Owatonna bank is the most famous of the group.
When Owatonna banker Carl Bennett decided in 1906 to construct a new bank, he sought out Sullivan because he wanted a unique kind of bank architecture, one that did not adhere to the tradition of temple-fronted Classical Revival buildings. Instead, Sullivan designed a brick cube with immense colored glass semicircular windows by Louis J. Millet, along with sinuous ornament in bright colored terra-cotta and cast iron both inside and out.
While the simple square brick exterior conveys a vault-like sense of permanence and security desirable in a bank, the exterior only hints at the elaborate interior. Sullivan’s chief draftsperson from 1899 to 1909, George Grant Elmslie, was responsible for much of the bank’s interior ornament and decorative scheme, which draws upon Prairie School imagery. The bank’s open plan banking room features rich terra-cotta and plaster ornament, and ornate stenciling in dozens of hues. Four immense cast-iron electric light fixtures called electroliers are major focal points of the main banking room. Sullivan and Elmslie even designed the door knobs, drinking fountains, and custom office furniture. Murals of dairy and harvest scenes by artist Oskar Gross can be found inside the interior arches. Besides the large open banking room, the interior spaces included a farmer’s exchange room, a women’s consultation room, a conference room, and a richly decorated president’s office.
When the nation’s farm economy collapsed in 1926, the National Farmers’ Bank failed. Subsequent owners made only minor alterations to the banking room until 1940, when a local contractor attempted to modernize the bank and, in the process, destroyed important terra-cotta decorative elements, installed fluorescent light fixtures, and sold Sullivan’s teller’s window wickets as scrap metal for eighty cents each. No architect was involved in this ill-conceived remodeling.
In 1955, a new bank president recognized a need for more space. Some thirty employees were working in a space designed for about a dozen people. The bank’s board looked into constructing an addition to the north, but that plan was not feasible because the owner of the property refused to sell. The bank then arranged to lease space in the building east of the bank, with an option to acquire the entire building within twenty years. At the same time, the bank commissioned a proposal by a Minneapolis firm that specialized in bank renovations.
The Minneapolis firm recommended a complete rearrangement of the banking room along with extensive remodeling of the entire bank building. Critics concerned about the fate of Sullivan’s building convinced the bank president to meet with a committee of architects from the Minnesota Society of Architects. At the committee’s recommendation, the bank hired Harwell Hamilton Harris of Fort Worth, Texas, to oversee the remodeling project.

2140 First State Bank
Steel-frame four-story bank building faced in limestone (1924-25). Albert Kahn, architect. All sculptures by famous Corrado G. Parducci.
This bank headquarters building is designed in a Classical Revival style, faced in grey Indiana limestone, and sited prominently at the corner of Griswold and West Lafayette Streets. This allowed for two façades each finished with three-story engaged, fluted Ionic columns between corner antae supporting a low attic story—two columns on Griswold flaking a central entrance and two more along the West Lafayette façade.
The main entrance door surround of Tennessee marble is filled with delicate carvings of animals, urns and foliate details. The original windows, encased in metal frames, still rest between spandrels of bronze and marble.
A denticulate entablature separated the fourth floor attic story from the floors below. The fourth floor windows are double hung and grouped in twos, separated by allegorical reliefs of wealth and security. The roofline is emphasized by a parapet incised with decorative detailing. The roof is flat.
The first floor lobby is a story and-a-half tall and serves as the showroom for the office furniture company MarxModa.

2146 The Gabriel Richard Building, also known as the Weil and Company Building, is high-rise located at 305 Michigan Avenue in Downtown Detroit, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2017. The building will open as a residential apartment building known as the Gabriel Houze in late 2017.
History In 1897, Moe C Weil moved from Cincinnati to Detroit and opened a furniture store known as Weil and Company. Their first store was downtown on Woodward Avenue. In 1914, Weil entered into an agreement with David Stott and the Stott Realty Company to lease this building, which Stott would construct specifically for their use. Stott hired the Chicago architecture firm of Marshall & Fox to design the building. Construction began in 1914, and was completed in 1915. Weil and Company opened their new store in this building in November 1915. The Stott Realty Company retained ownership, with Weil leasing the building.
Moe Weil died in 1920, leaving the store to his wife Hattie. Hattie died in 1930 and left the company to her son Victor and daughter Florence, with the stipulation that Victor continue to run the business. Victor, however, died in 1943 while serving in the United States Air Corps, and Weil and Company soon went out of business.
In 1945, the Stott Realty Company sold the building to the nearby St. Aloysius Roman Catholic Church. The church renamed the building the Gabriel Richard Building, after pioneering Detroiter Father Gabriel Richard. In 1948, the church turned the building over to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Detroit for use as offices. The church was in an expansion phase after World War II, growing from 800,000 Catholics in 1945 to 1.3 million in 1960. The Catholic Family Center was one of the first organizations located in the Gabriel Richard building, and much of the remainder of the building was leased to other secular tenants, including a credit association, law office, and Michigan Bell Telephone. As the Archdiocese grew, the number of Catholic offices in the building increased until by 1968 the Archdiocese occupied all of the upper floors, including the Parish Life and Services Department, Christian Services Department, Catholic Youth Organization, the Communications Department, and the Information Technology Department.[3] In 1976, the building became home to the Catholic High School League Hall of Fame, and it came to be home to a television studio in the 1980s.
However, the number of Catholics declined starting in the 1970s, and in 2015 the Archdiocese moved its offices to a smaller building and sold the Gabriel Richard Building.[3] Developer Joe Barbat purchased the building. Barbat plans to undertake a $6.5 million renovation to turn the building into about 110 multifamily residential units.[5] The building will open as a residential apartment building known as the 'Gabriel Houze in late 2017.
Description The Gabriel Richard Building is a ten-and-a-half-story tall Chicago Style commercial building with Classical Revival decorative elements. The building is clad with white terra cotta, and has a tripartite overall design, with a two-and-a-half-story tall base, a six-story tall main section, and a two-story tall top with surmounting parapet wall. The building faces two main streets: Michigan Avenue and Washington Boulevard. The main facades are three and five bays wide, with bays separated by vertical piers and triple window openings on each floor. The facades have identical terra cotta Classical Revival decorations such as garlands egg and dart molding and keystones.
The two-and-a-half-story tall base of the building contains one-and-a-half-story tall storefronts with newer aluminum and glass-framed windows installed and canopies overhead. The center bay on the Michigan Avenue side has a projecting cornice across the top of the storefront opening. The right-hand bay contains the entrance to the upper floors, with another building entrance in the left-hand bay. The Washington Avenue elevation also has entryways in the left- and right-hand bays. The second floor above the storefronts on each side contains three one-over-one double-hung windows.
The central six-story section of the building is demarcated by projecting bands at the sill lines of the third and ninth floor windows. The eighth-floor window openings have segmental-arch heads which emphasize the top of the section. The top two floors contain more decorative elements. The piers between the bays contain a raised vertical line of flowers down the center of the pier. The top of the building is decorated with wave and egg and dart molding. The piers end in a terra cotta merlon extending above the wall.
The interior of the building has been remodeled multiple times. The first floor contains commercial spaces and an entrance lobby to the upper floors. The lobby has marble tile floors and wainscot with painted walls above. The upper floors contain corridors with offices. The basement contains an unused staircase with a small section of metal railing supported by fluted newel posts resembling classical columns which is apparently original to the building.

2148 Detroit Trust Co. Building
This bank building opened on Nov. 22, 1915 - but was only a third its current size.
Architect Albert Kahn designed it for the Detroit Trust Co., a three-story, Neoclassical-style design with a steel-frame construction and a facade of limestone on the southwest corner of West Fort and Shelby streets. The cost was estimated at $130,000, and the building permit was issued in January 1915. Ernest Wilby, Kahn's frequent partner in design, was the associate architect.
The bank's "patrons and friends and the public generally are invited to inspect the company's new quarters then and thereafter," the Detroit Free Press wrote Nov. 21, 1915. "All the problems that have arisen during the rapid growth of the Detroit Trust Co. have been provided for."
Kahn and Wilby outfitted the bank with a granite base and buff Bedford limestone exterior. The floor was of marble and the walls of Bitticino marble all the wall to the beamed-and-coffered ceiling. This first form of the building extended just 40 feet along West Fort but 138 feet on Shelby. The general contractor was the Albert A. Albrecht Co. of Detroit, and nearly all of the sub-contractors were also based in the city. The bank moved in just a month shy of its 15th anniversary.
"The most striking feature of the building, aside from its architectural beauty, is perhaps the abundance of light in every room and part of the building," the Detroit Evening Times wrote Nov. 22, 1915, the day of the building's opening. "The Detroit Trust Co. has grown very rapidly, so fast, in fact, as to make the construction of its new building an imperative necessity."

2151 Michigan Central Terminal
The Michigan Central Terminal (MCT), located in Detroit, Michigan, is one of the most iconic and historically significant buildings in the city. Opened in 1913, it was designed by the architectural firms Warren & Wetmore and Reed & Stem, who were also responsible for New York City's Grand Central Terminal. The 18-story Beaux-Arts structure served as a hub for passenger rail service, connecting Detroit to major cities across the United States and Canada. Its grand waiting room, inspired by ancient Roman baths, boasted 54-foot ceilings, marble floors, and elegant chandeliers, symbolizing Detroit's prosperity during the early 20th century.

2169 rappling with economic decline and suburban flight. Initiated by Henry Ford II and backed by prominent investors, the RenCen opened its doors in 1977 at a cost of $350 million, making it one of the most ambitious projects of its time. General Motors later acquired the complex in 1996, solidifying its role as a hub for automotive innovation and business. Over the decades, the Renaissance Center has evolved into a multifunctional space, housing corporate offices, retail shops, restaurants, and a luxury hotel.
