Almost perfect. But please go back and turn the music down. Got a tour of this building last winter. They have them every weekend. And remember, lower the music.

No shots of the interior? You cut down all of the public's forest, and this is what we have to show for it?

Overall True. There used to be an open-air deck up there that Allowed people to "see their house" Some of this is very well known known.

Just went in there today to the bank.everytime i walk in this building im amazed by something i hadnt noticed before

Super Video

Cool you got to see the original blueprints!❤

Haven't found many videos like this. Great job! earned a sub :)

I downloaded a map of Nike sites all around the Los Angeles area. I Never knew that there was so many of them during the cold war. Today, Some of the sites are gone or there being used for storage by the county of Los Angeles. Great video.

I work on JBER, Alaska, which has the best preserved Nike site, called Nike Site Summit.

I’ve always considered this building to be my favorite in the skyline, mostly because the Empire State is my favorite New York skyscraper and the Penobscot reminds me of it

Love your videos. Keep it up! Hopefully, the Fisher Building is next!

I've been on the(open-air)ROOF of this art-deco masterpiece!! Constructed of THIRTY floors of mahogany granite,and 17 floors of Indiana limestone,it,at completoon was the tallest building in the world OUTside of Manhattan!! 😮

If a projectile is very small compared to a missile or warhead, it might cost a lot less. Certain arguments argue against ABM systems with the argument that the enemy can make more missiles to compensate for the defense. A BB travelling at ten kilometers per secind might put a hoke all the way through a nuclear warhead with inch thick steel plate armor. . A lot of tiny rockets in space travelling every which way might be able to destroy thousands of missiles at any point over the Earth. Another possibility is tiny solar planes powered by tiny solar ram jets that are always travelling every which wsy. If they don't need any fuel, they can be much lighter and always be in the sky. Traveling at 10 kilometers per second, they could reach any target on the dark side of the Earth in about ten minutes. Since they can change their durection without fuel which is required to maneuver in space where there is no air, they could be much smaller. Maybe as small as one centimeter long. Microelectronic detectors and guidance might cost $10. The microelectronics 8n one smart phone would have cost millions of dollars not many years ago. If the defense can deploy a million planes for the cost of one enemy ICBM, the expense argument is not much of an argument. If the solar plane is travelling about the same speed and direction as a missile or warhead, it can approach close to it and send precise location and trajectory data to the defense system which can dispatch planes in the area to the target. The system would also be a defense against conventional missiles and planes lower in the atmosphere. Even ground targets. A tiny plane could be fired out of an air gun on the ground and take out a nuclear warhead 50 miles up in the sky. If you have a long narrow swept wing plane with mirrored wings like a trough parabolic mirror focused on a cylinder with a slit in the side covered with glass to let cincentrated sunlight inside, the plane can be pointed towards the sun to accelerate and gain altitude. Once it is going faster than the sun sets, it can remain airborne indefinitely abive the clouds. A rwo gram plane teavelling at ten kilometers per second has about as much destructive energy as a half poind of TNT.

10:21, The Penobscot Building, and Guardian Building, were built at the same time, with the Penobscot Building already topped out, while the Guardian Building shown here under construction, and not topped out yet. Photo taken in late 1928.

"The Cathedral Of Finance"had SO many red bricks imported for its' 495 foot construction,there was a new color designated as:"Guardian Red"!! 😮

You better believe there are still ABM's in Washington D.C.! Right on the White House premises and around D.C....

Dad used to take us up to his Art Studio at the top to watch the Fireworks on the detroit river . How ironic his brother passed on July 4th

I was a launcher crewman 16b20 1968 to 1970. I was station 35 miles from Fairbanks Alaska at C battery. Also at Wheeler Indiana and Union Lake Michigan

You could see D-06 from the back yard of my wife's childhood home. Launch and IFC.

What a Wonderful Historical Video about the Penobscot Building in Detroit. I was born in Detroit in 1955. And my grandfather Stanley Altschuler. An immigrant from Russia. Opened up a small Advertising agency the Stanley Advertising Agency Incorporated. I think in 1948. By 1954. My parents had given up there Musical Careers. Mom would teach voice lessons at home. Dad would play in the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. And at the Fisher Theater for all of the Broadway shows. And at Motown Studios frequently on the weekends. And at United Sound Systems Studios, on the weekends. Playing his violin for them. For both Motown and Stax Records. Dad would join my grandpa in the Advertising Agency. For his day job.. The orchestra and everything else at night. Dad was working 2 jobs. And the Advertising Agency as I recall. Was on the 8th floor of the Penobscot Building. I loved that building. I love going to my dad's office. As a little kid. I found the building, nostalgic to me as a little kid. It was magical. It seemed to me. Everything was still from the 1940s.. And also at the Train Station. Which was just as Magical.. Still decked out in its 1940s to core. I remember. In the 1960s. As a kid growing up. Dad moved into a nicer bigger, single floor, single building office. Off of West 8 Mile Road. That would inspire me. And to my Career of Audio and Broadcast Engineering. It's all dad's fault. He kept on taking me down to the TV & Radio Stations. And to the Recording Studios. Starting at 7 years of age. I thought that's what he wanted me to do? But no! My parents wanted me to follow in their footsteps and become a Professional Musician. I didn't want to do that. It was more fun playing with the equipment! And I didn't have to get up in front of an audience of people looking at me. Nobody would see me inside the Radio or TV Station. And that was fine by me. I did not have the same kind of Ego. Necessary. For people to be Live Performers on stage. I didn't need to do that. I could do it from behind the scenes. I didn't need to be Famous. Like they wanted to be. Today I'm just an, Oldster. With a 22-year-old New Old Motorhome. And loving it. I'm all alone now. But when I was around, 6 years old. Grandpa died.. And dad moved out of the Penobscot building. I miss it. RemyRAD

Wow! The top of the building is in the shape of the Jewish Star of David!!! Awesome 🎉🎉🎉

I was a security MP at Site Summit Alaska in the middle 1970's. What is left of the site is still standing. Tours are available in the summer. Site Summit was closed in the summer of 1979.

Awesome job. Born and raised in Detroit, never knew this history 😮. 💪📸👍

I've always dreamed of buying and renovating one of those gorgeous abandoned buildings in Detroit, living in the penthouse, and choosing businesses that the residents and I would use. I'd basically be living in my business

Beautiful, architecture is so functional and bland these days, no style or imagination.

Awesome video

It's composed of THIRTY stories of mahogany granite,and 17 stories of Indiana limestone!! The highest floor accesible by elevator is the 42nd,but the ROOF is technically the 47TH floor,so one desiring to view the river,Windsor and downtown Detroit,from nearly 600 feet up,must HIKE up FIVE flights of stairs!! The OPEN-air view of the surrounding area is MORE than worth the effort!! ❤

Greta video thank you

great video: should be seen!

Look into tulsa Oklahoma. A ton of art deco buildings not during their pool rush.

People really think this beautiful building was built to Be a bank…

I wish we could've seen the inside of the top of the building. What did the office space look like?

They were protesting public health measures. They also occupied Ottawa with blessing of cowardly premièr of province who fled to bunker cottage. Meanwhile construction of Gordie Howe shoot the puck bridge was underway despite american opposition. A better built bridge to handle todays and tomorrow's bottleneck. Protesting is easy, solving problems requires effort.

I started my scuba diving 'lifestyle' right underneath the blue-water bridge [ bridge-view marina ] and here they are front and center in your production. I spent a lot of time in the Detroit / Marine city / Port Huron / London / Sarina area as a little girl and I love being able to swing back in time through your videos. You might be interested to know i shoot with Nikon's (mainly my old F2...it weighs more than I do😆 ) and the hasselblads left to me by my father. The depth of your talent is staggering ~M💕

A beautifully tailored production ~M

So glad Detroit saved this and many other fabulous buildings. We went there twice and have yet to catch a tour. I know NOT to go on weekends as many wedding venues take place there. Maybe third time will be a charm. Also a wonderful tour is the Fisher Building!

How stunning, and the historical stories make it all the better!

It's my favorite building in Detroit

Beautiful building the Gaurdian building vary classic in design.

Answer: Only every time I go to downtown Detroit.

John Boehner was house leader and also good friends with the owner of the Ambassador Bridge. So perhaps you can do a follow up video where you dig into that relationship and what happened or more importantly what didn't happen at the federal level which for many years prevented the construction of a new bridge.

Wonderful building and let’s hope it is preserved forever. Nothing is built to this level of detail anymore. Bare concrete seems to dominate now.

IMO, top 5 Art Deco buildings in the world. It's def. my favorite building in Detroit.

Well done! Outsiders just don’t understand, even though much has been lost, how truly special our town is.

My Father worked in that building back in the late 60s for some insurance Company. I've been in there a few times and it is very beautiful.

Too sad I can only apllaud you with one like.

I think it’s more like $100,000,000.

I was a 16B and 24U for the Nike Hercules system from 1984 thru 1987 in W. Germany and Bliss.
