Hi all,
I'm a (relatively) new Detroit resident (moved near the Fisher Building last October). One of my favorite thing to do is drive around and just look. I was driving yesterday and saw a beautiful building on the corner of Grand River and Rosa Parks. Does anyone have any info? Thanks so much!

The castle lookin' building? I believe it used to be a police precinct, but now it serves a purpose unknown to me.
