David Broderick Tower, Neo-classical skyscraper in Downtown Detroit, United States

The David Broderick Tower rises 369 feet with 34 floors of limestone-clad architecture at the intersection of Woodward Avenue and Witherell Street.

Built between 1926 and 1928 as the Eaton Tower, this structure became Michigan's second tallest building during its completion period.

The building's rear facade displays a large mural by local artist Phillip Simpson, replacing the previous whale artwork from 1997.

The ground floor houses the Detroit Sports Bar & Grille, while the upper floors contain residential apartments following the 2012 renovation.

The building follows a parallelogram shape instead of a traditional square layout, distinguishing it from other Detroit skyscrapers.
