Fisher Building

The Fisher Theater is absolutely beautiful. A great place to see a Broadway show. The Cher Show was amazing. Hope to see it again. The bartenders were great in the bar areas.

Saw To Kill a Mockingbird at the Fisher Theater last night with friends. There were two stars last night: Richard Thomas and the Fisher Building. I hadn't been in the Fisher building in over 40 years and it's still as magnificent as it ever was. It is an Art Deco masterpiece designed by Albert Khan and voted the most beautiful commercial building in the United States in 1928.

Such a wonderful building with an incredible history. Excellent tour, too! Kept the attention of my 9, 13 and 16 year olds.. and my husband and mother!

Falling into disrepair a bit without the George Harrison funding it used to enjoy. The building was long ago repurposed as a Hare Krishna temple. Many incredibly beautiful spiritual paintings, tapestries, and sculptures grace the building. A REALLY cool mini theater which shares a bit about the Hare Krishna religion and absolutely incredible life-size walk-through diorama of scenes of Krishna. The people are incredibly happy and welcoming. They give tours of the building for $40. Well worth it and a cool way to spend an afternoon while enriching your cultural and historic Detroit knowledge.

What a wonderful tour experience. If there is anyone who is fascinated by architecture or Detroit history. Or looking for a way to spend a Saturday afternoon for free go on the Pure Detroit tour of the Fisher Building we went at 12pm Jacob was very knowledgeable and you could hear the passion in his delivery.

The lobby of the Fisher Building is open to the public. It's absolutely worth your time to take a quick walk through to see the amazing architecture. For a more in depth experience, Pure Detroit, located on the first floor of the building, offers a free tour. It lasts about one hour. You get the full history of the building along with stops on higher floors that you can't see on your own. If you have the time, I would definitely recommend the tour. It was a lot of fun.
