The Guardian Building

The Guardian Building, constructed in 1929, is one of the most recognizable landmark buildings in the Detroit skyline. Bestowed as a United States Historic Landmark, this stunning piece of architecture towers more than 490 feet (149 meter) over Detroit's heart. The opulent Art Deco structure has 36 floors with interiors that are actually just as impressive as the façade. It's home to many financial firms and hence it has rightly earned the epithet 'Cathedral of Finance'. Irrespective of how busy one's schedule is, locals as well as tourists find time to step-in and admire the colorful beauty of this architectural marvel.

Detroit City Distillery

Evoking the Roaring Twenties sentiment, this trendy distillery tasting room brings back the craft of artisanal, small batch liquor. From hand crafted whiskey, vodka, and gin, the Detroit City Distillery sources local ingredients from neighboring farms and even the Eastern Market, where the tasting room resides. Distinctly unique, these quality liquors are the perfect base for a artisanal cocktail or even just neat or on the rocks. Following the Roaring Twenties theme, the bottles feature stylized labels that are a piece of art unto themselves. Both classic and signature cocktails can be found, from a typical Whiskey Sour with egg white and lemon, to a Transfer Season made with lemon, annise tea, bitters, soda and their famed Two Faced Bourbon.
