This is one of the lobbies inside the Fisher Building and it is decorated quite lovely for the Christmas holiday. The Fisher Building (1928) is a landmark skyscraper located at 3011 West Grand Boulevard in the heart of the New Center area of Detroit, Michigan. The ornate building is designed in an Art Deco style, constructed of limestone, granite, and several types of marble. The Fisher family financed the building with proceeds from the sale of Fisher Body to General Motors. It was designed to house office and retail space. The building, which contains the elaborate 2,089-seat Fisher Theatre, was designated a National Historic Landmark 29 June 1989. Albert Kahn and Associates designed the building with Joseph Nathaniel French serving as chief architect. The Fisher Building rises 30 stories with a roof height of 428 feet (130 m), a top floor height of 339 feet (103 m), and the spire reaching 444 feet (135 m). The building has 21 elevators! The opulent three-story barrel vaulted lobby is constructed with forty different kinds of marble, decorated by Hungarian artist Geza Maroti, and is highly regarded by architects.
