Description:

The Buhl Building in Detroit, Michigan seen from a distance. "Designed by legendary Detroit architect Wirt Rowland of the firm Smith, Hynchman & Grylls, the Buhl's design deftly combines gothic and Romanesque features ... entering from Griswold Street, the visitor passes majestic granite Corinthian columns, through a mosaic-inlaid gothic archway and into a lobby adorned with richly-textured white marble," from the Buhl Building's website.
