State of Michigan Plaza

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The State of Michigan Plaza (also known by the name "Executive Plaza") is an office tower that was constructed in 1974. It stands 22 stories high on the corner of 6th Street and Howard Street, in Detroit, Michigan, close to the John C. Lodge Freeway. Its address is 1200 6th Street.

The high-rise was constructed using the international style of architecture, along with the black box style. Its main material is highly reflective glass. It looks similar to the nearby Detroit Edison Plaza.
