Graham Windows Adorn Detroit Renovation

The Metropolitan Building has occupied the triangular lot at 33 John R Street since its completion in 1925 and has been a Neo-Gothic icon of downtown Detroit ever since.

Once known as the “Jeweler’s Building” for the jewelry manufacturers and shops it housed, the building closed in 1977 and fell into disrepair. It became another blighted reminder of Detroit’s tougher times, a skyscraper with a tree growing on its roof.

Graham provided over 600 of our 1200 Series Fixed and Offset Fixed windows, including custom panning.
