The Renaissance Center
Uploaded: November 21, 2007 04:37:05
Taken in Detroit Michigan while on vacation. I was out in front looking up at the buildings. Its right on the river front. It's a five tower complex. It's a city in a city. Its made of reflective glass. The Renaissance Center is home to General Motors world headquarters. There are 71 floors. I stayed on the 51st floor overlooking the water. It's the one in the center. You could see the Canada side on the other side of the water. It has all kinds of eating places, shops, movies and all kinds of other things inside. You could spend all day in there and not see all of it.
