Presented by Albert Kahn Legacy Foundation

Guardian Building Tour

About This Event

Detroit's Guardian Building is one of the most influential Art Deco skyscrapers in the world. Designed by Wirt Rowland and completed in 1929, it was immediately praised for its bold, modern style and innovative use of color and geometric design.

Join the Albert Kahn Legacy Foundation for a behind-the-scenes tour to explore its groundbreaking features and lasting impact on architecture. Participants will visit several non-public areas, including the 32nd-floor event space with fantastic city views, the wood-paneled boardroom, and the building's interior structural 'guts.'
