Professional Plaza Tower
Professional Plaza Tower, International Style office building in Midtown Detroit, United States
Professional Plaza Tower features a glass and aluminum curtain wall exterior with three concrete columns extending from base to roof on each side.
The tower emerged in 1966 as part of the Detroit Medical Center urban renewal plan, designed to attract medical professionals back into the city.
The structure earned recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016 for its contribution to Detroit's architectural development.
Located at 3800 Woodward Avenue, the building underwent a 22 million dollar renovation in 2017, converting into 72 residential apartments with ground floor retail.
Two neon signs displaying hammers and nails adorned the penthouse walls until 2016, leading locals to name it the Hammer and Nail building.
