Under its Skin

Curbed Detroit looks underneath the steel facade of the Claridge House Apartments.  Built as the Michigan State Telephone Building in 1906, steel was used to cover up the original brick facade during a renovation occurring between 1967 and 1970.

Dan Gilbert purchased the building in April of 2012 and renovations are ongoing.
