- Exterior view of the Palms Apartment Building on East Jefferson Avenue in Detroit, Michigan designed by architects, George D. Mason and Albert Kahn. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. "The Palms is a six-story apartment building is U-shaped in plan with wings extending on the rear side and has irregular-coursed, rough-face limestone facades, the front facade has a central entrance with classical surrounds, with its engaged, octagonal corner towers, four-story bay window above the entrance, belt courses and roof balustrade, the facade treatment is primarily English Renaissance in style, the lot on which the Palms is located slopes downward at the rear causing the high basement, visible on the front facade, to become a fully exposed story on the rear facade ... the Palms is a relatively early and significant building in the career of its architect, Albert Kahn, the building marks the beginning of his use of steel-reinforced concrete, a technique which he later perfected in his industrial structures, Kahn, then in partnership with George D. Mason, used reinforced concrete for the floor in the Palms while the walls were constructed of load-bearing masonry," from the Michigan State Historic Sites Online website.
