211 West Fort Street is a 27-story skyscraper in Downtown Detroit, Michigan, currently owned by Tribus LLC a family owned office in Grosse Pointe, MI. Construction began in 1961, and finished in 1963. The building stands at the southeast corner of Fort Street and Washington Boulevard. It was constructed adjacent to the Detroit Trust Company Building, designed by Albert Kahn in 1915, as offices for the Detroit Bank and Trust Company, later known as Comerica.[2] The bank occupied space in the building until 1993, when it moved to One Detroit Center. In the courtyard between the two buildings is a sculpture based on the bank's logo at the time.
The building currently houses offices for the Detroit Economic Club, United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, Visit Detroit, Majorel, the United States Attorney and several other tenants.
