One of the oldest buildings in the city, the Fyfe Building.

Once known as 'Fyfe Shoes', the lower floor is still a shoe store.

The Fyfe Building in an old illustration of Detroit. (It looks like the artist was on the Hudson's awning) Trivia: An airplane circling over the Fyfe Building struck a flagpole on top, then crashed through a house at Witherell and Montcalm. But fortunately, it missed the downtown crowds two blocks away.
