1300 Lafayette East Cooperative, Residential cooperative building in Lafayette Park, Detroit, United States.

The 30-story residential structure features a two-story marble lobby, meeting facilities, and a mezzanine level with a fitness center and commercial offices.

Architect Gunnar Birkerts completed this reinforced concrete building in 1964 with a total construction cost of 8.4 million dollars.

The building transformed into a cooperative in 1979 through tenant initiative, establishing a new model of community living in Detroit's urban environment.

The 336 residential units offer various layouts from studios to four-bedroom apartments, with windows providing views of downtown Detroit and the Detroit River.

Giant numerals displaying '1300' on the north and south sides of the roof remain visible from both Detroit and Windsor across the international border.
