The Guardian Building

James W. Tottis

A detailed photographic history of the Union Trust Building, now known as the Guardian Building, an Art Deco architectural gem of Detroit's skyline. Built in 1929, it became perhaps the most recognizable and innovative structure in the city. Its striking orange brick facade and colorful ceramic accents set it apart from other buildings in Detroit's financial district.
