This massive block is the Theodore Levin United States Courthouse and it was completed in 1934. The design features Art Deco and Art Modern elements. The structure includes polished black granite, fluted pilasters and sculpted eagles that symbolize its purpose as a federal building.
Inside, the courthouse boasts an open central court above the second floor and houses one of its most remarkable features: the Romanesque-style Chief Judge's Courtroom. This room was salvaged from the previous courthouse at the insistence of Judge Arthur Tuttle, who oversaw its careful disassembly and reconstruction. The courtroom's marble and mahogany details were preserved in over 150 barrels and reassembled using original blueprints, making it one of the most beautiful examples of courtroom design in the country.
The building is named after Judge Theodore Levin, who served as Chief Judge of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan from 1959 to 1967.
