Pure Detroit Tours

At Pure Detroit, we believe our mission is greater than being the favorite Detroit tee in your
dresser drawer. We believe in re-investing in brick-&-mortar business throughout the city and adding
to the cultural cache. That cultural cache part? That's where our free tours of the Fisher &
Guardian Buildings + downtown walking tours come into play.

These are not two of the most beautiful skyscrapers in the city, state or country. They are two of
the most beautiful skyscrapers in the world and they are right here in the heart of Detroit. Need a
better reason to join us? 

Pure Detroit FISHER BUILDING tours are completely free & open to the public of all ages.

Photography is encouraged. Learn intimate details as well as see firsthand the exquisite design and
ornamentation of the interior arcade including one-of-a-kind mosaics, painted ceilings, Art Deco
chandeliers and the finest craftsmanship in stone, brass and bronze. The tour will feature an
extensive history of the building as well as a trip to the 19th floor for excellent photo
opportunities. The tour begins at our Pure Detroit shop at the north entrance of the building
(Second & Lothrop), where plenty of metered parking and paid secured parking (Tony's Lot - $5) is
available. You'll be able to sign up for the tour when you arrive (no advanced sign up is
necessary).
