Detroit Edison Plaza

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is about DTE Energy's headquarters. for the DTE Energy Building, see that article.

Detroit Edison Plaza is a large skyscraper in Detroit, Michigan. It is often referred to as "DTE Energy Building", from a large neon sign on the building's top floor. That is incorrect, however, as there is a nearby building with that name. It was constructed in 1971, and stands at 25 floors. The high-rise is built in the International style of architecture. It is composed of steel, with many glass windows. It bears an architectural resemblance to the nearby State of Michigan Plaza.
