Fisher Building

The Fisher Building, known as the Golden Tower, has brightened metropolitan Detroit’s skyline since 1928 and stands as a city landmark often called Detroit’s largest art object. The Fisher Brothers, developers of the closed automobile, erected it for their offices. Architect Albert Kahn received the Architectural League’s Silver Medal naming it the most beautiful commercial structure of the year. Its exterior metallic trim is solid bronze, gold leaf dominates the hand-painted arcade ceiling, and marble from around the world adorns both the outside and inside. Within its walls are shops, restaurants, art galleries, business offices, and the renowned Fisher Theatre, while underground walkways connect it to the General Motors World Headquarters and the New Center Building.
