On September 14, 1959, the National Bank of Detroit moved into its new headquarters on the south side of Campus Martius. The building was dedicated on October 4, 1959. Work on NBD's "cheese grater" began in the summer of 1957 and led to the demolition of Detroit's first skyscraper, the Hammond Building, the Union Trust Co. Building and others.

The building, designed by Albert Kahn Associates, later became known as Chase Tower, but is today known as The Qube and owned by Dan Gilbert's Bedrock.

More on this building coming soon.
