If you seek an Art Deco skyscraper...

                                                                                     (click on to enlarge postcard)
                          
                             The Guardian Building  is a must-see when visiting Detroit!

                             This 40-story skyscraper is one of the finest examples of Art Deco
                             architecture in North America.

                             Designed by architect Wirt Rowland, it was completed in 1929.
                             The Guardian Building is a U.S. National Historic Landmark.
