One of the most historically recognized buildings in downtown #Detroit. Full of offices that have housed many well known local law firms, city government offices, small bodega, locally owned clothing stores, restaurants, bars, fine dining eateries, a pingpong themed bar, and lastly, one of the last known "shoeshineing" places in the country.

The Penobscot Building could be gorgeous. I worked on the 43rd floor from 2014- March 2021. My office overlooked Comerica Park. Every office in our suite had breathtaking views. The sunset photo below is taken from the in-suite bathroom. The security and building staff were friendly and professional. My low review has nothing to do with them. The building’s staff do the best they can with the resources available to them. The Penobscot has two elevator shafts, so you need to transfer elevators to get to floors 34-44. I got stuck in the elevators several times (once for over an hour). On multiple occasions I was required to take walk 10+ floors to my office when the tower elevator was inoperable. During my last months there my suite had no running water. This meant I had to (hopefully) take two elevators to the 13th floor to use the restroom. It’s a shame that this building has fallen into disrepair.

Beautiful Building. Amazing architecture. So much history and stories I have been told about inside the building on different floors and the well known stars who have frequented it over the years. The office spaces are very nice, spacious, has an amazing energy being inside the 3rd tallest building Downtown Detroit. If anyone is looking to rent out an office space downtown, I would definetly recommend the Penobscot Building.

Beautiful building. I didn't get to go inside. Next visit I will. Definitely worth seeing if going downtown. Amazing architecture.

Beautiful artwork in the ceilings and walls. A video would be best. This building is always clean and security is very courteous and respectable. I always ENJOYYYY stepping into this historical beauty. Pics to follow.

The building itself is beautiful but it houses Wayne County Friend of the Court. The Court system really doesn't seem to have the children's best interest at heart they seem more concerned about money.

This building is only at 30% capacity. I worked there in the past. Caucus Club is amazing. Food is great, the owner is a great guy( George)👌

The security guard there was wonderfu,....l I was in a very difficult situation and he took and understood and helped, and that's what you appreciate when you go to a building like that☺️🤗help,/service! Nice

The building is over a century old. You will enjoy seeing the architectural structure of this site. Its in need of a lot of repair, buts its a beautiful building.

Like time stood still..This building has been preserved and is probably as pretty today as it was in its inception..The front Desk Guard is Awesome too!! He referred me to a Stephen A Thomas a Family Law Attorney who practices in this Building.

Got best dentist office I ever been to Detroit dental like to thank staff that works there

I went to pick up paperwork from friend of the court the building was very clean the security guard was very nice and was able to direct me towards the right direction

I will remember this meal on my death bed. Fantastic! Every bite was heaven. Don't skip on the Zip

The experience was surprisingly pleasant and was as fast as you'd hope for. Professional people and very helpful.

Had a chance to visit Carnival Fresh Mex inside the Penobscot. One of the best tacos in Detroit. Period

Interesting interior details but the experience was ruined by an rude security guard.

Athens Restaurant and Detroit Donuts have the most delicious food and staff!

Not much to report it's still a nice building for it to be so dated the security guard was really helpful and nice and I took care of the business I had to take care of and was out of there in no time

Thank God it was there and I was able to do the things that I needed to do a lot has changed since the last time there but I was able to move around smoothly and everything that needed to b done was done and it didn't take all day

Over all, I had a good experience here. You will be here for a while, 2 to 3 hours, but that's because they're short staffed for such a large building. Everything you need in here while you wait and the employee's are kind.

Its not as busy as it used to be.due to covid.but this building is actually amazing cause of its age.this building is old .some floors are still original.amazing view of the city and water.its 3 buildings in one.whoever built it.had imagination.

The Caucus Club was a wonderful experience. The wait staff and the food were both great.

The staff there was very polite and very helpful very clean beautiful building

The caucus club was divine and the service was awesome. Very elegant!

That eye brow connecting 🤼‍♂️ referee EDRICK need to get off the bench & see if he can survive off only eating one item....stoopid & bias 😑

Very good customer service and I am always satisfied.

A couple of nice little restaurants hidden away in here

Very beautiful building in Detroit. The Architect work is very neat in the detail of the building.
