The landmark State Savings Bank at 151 West Fort Street is the only large-scale building in Michigan designed by the legendary (but ill-fated) Stanford White (1853-1906), principal of the internationally-renowned architectural firm, McKim, Mead & White. MM&W is better known for their numerous works on the East Coast, particularly in New York City, where the firm was headquartered. The State Savings Bank is a neo-classical masterpiece of white marble, featuring many details associated with bank buildings of the period, such as the Ionic columns that flank the Fort Street entrance. Above the entrance is a cartouche bearing the Great Seal of Michigan and two female allegorical figures, representing Industry & Commerce. In 1914, the company, now known as People's State Bank after a merger in 1907, hired Donaldson & Meier to design an addition to the building that double its size and extended it to Congress Street. The addition is virtually identical to the original building. Andreas Apostolopoulos, a developer from Toronto, purchased the building in 2012, with the intent to demolish to make way for surface parking for tenants of the Penobscot Building, which he also owned. Thankfully, the proposal for demolition was denied. Apostolopoulos sold the property to Dan Gilbert in 2014. The interior is currently being used as event space, including weddings. #Detroit #DowntownDetroit #FinancialDistrict #BeauxArts #Neoclassical #StanfordWhite #McKimMeadandWhite #DonaldsonandMeier #FortStreet #archi_ologie #BrickStory #RawDetroit #PureMichigan #PureMittigan #MotorCityShooters #PureDetroit313 #DepictTheD #VisitDetroit #Michiganders #ThisPlaceMatters #ThisPlaceMattersDetroit #MichiganPlacesMatter (at State Savings Bank) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUbZIXij58l/?utm_medium=tumblr

Sure, maybe it’s back to #greyskies here in #yyj, but places like #sallybun ease the slide into fall. But with the jazz playing and the fashionable treatment of the place you could just forget where you are and slip away into that old school cool fog. #fortstreet #yyjcafe #retroaesthetic #oldschoolcool (at Sally Bun) https://www.instagram.com/p/CT8BC6xBdur/?utm_medium=tumblr

Gave a list of restaurants around Britomart where Jodie @jodie_fay works. She chose Indochine because she liked the sound of the Pho. Uncle ordered the Banh Mi and expected one that matches Fusion Cafe. It's so bad he refuses to post a picture of it. The baguette was more a fiscally, chewy and the filling nothing to crow about. What was there was not fresh and you need to send a search party to find any pate schmear. Jodie fared better with her Pho. Ok, Indochine has new owners but that's really no excuse. #pho #banhmi #indochinekitchen #fortstreet #downtownauckland #instavietnamese (at Indochine Kitchen) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpi3aovFk4A/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=un9cqap7fymk
