Bankers Trust Company Building, Detroit, Romanesque Revival bank building in Financial District, Detroit, US.

The two-story Bankers Trust Company Building features terra-cotta facades with large arched windows and green marble columns decorated with lion motifs.

The Bankers Trust Company, established in 1917 with a capital of 300,000 dollars, constructed this headquarters in 1925 and remained there until 1948.

The building reflects the early 20th-century transformation of Detroit's Financial District from wooden structures to substantial commercial architecture.

Located at 205 West Congress Street, the structure has transformed from a bank to various establishments, including restaurants and entertainment venues.

The building received a three-story addition in 1960 that introduced an International Style facade, contrasting with the original Romanesque design.
