The Globe Building, a seven-story red-brick Romanesque Revival building, invites guests with a wood atrium that spans from the lobby to the top floor. Inside, exposed brick, vaulted ceilings and arched windows complement the wooden beams and sunlit atrium. The Globe Building was designed by architect Alexander Chappton in 1888 for the Globe Tobacco Company. Located at the corner of East Fort and Brush Streets, the property sits near downtown’s bustling Central Business District, and just a block from the Greektown entertainment district. Retail and event spaces are available with an adjacent parking garage, and recent renovations and an office conversion were completed in 2016.
