United Way Community Services Building, 12-floor architectural structure in downtown Detroit, Michigan, US
The United Way Community Services Building features brown stone on lower floors and tan brick on upper levels, with granite pilasters framing the entrance.
Completed in 1895 by architects Spier & Rohns, this 48.77-meter-high building stood as Michigan's tallest structure and Detroit's first steel-skeleton skyscraper.
Initially serving as Detroit Savings Bank Building, the structure transformed into a community services center, supporting local social initiatives and resident assistance programs.
Located at 1212 Griswold Street intersection with State Street, the building houses office spaces and residential units following its 2015 renovation.
The building's fifth to twelfth-floor light court received a glass enclosure and gabled roof in 1988, creating additional office space above the main entrance.
