==History==
The Detroit Cornice and Slate Company was started by Frank Hesse in 1888.〔(Detroit Cornice and Slate Company ) website〕 In 1897, the company hired Harry J. Rill〔 to design a Beaux-Arts〔 three-story building for their use.〔 The building was used by the company until 1972, when lack of storage and parking space forced the company to relocate in Ferndale.〔 In 1974, the building was renovated for office and commercial use by architect Bill Kessler.〔(''Look Up: Top 10 Downtown Buildings,'' ) ((Archive )) AIA Detroit, ModelD, November 8, 2005.〕 In the 1990s, the ''Metro Times'' newspaper moved into the building; a wraparound addition was constructed to increase room for the newspaper.〔 In 1999 William Kessler and Associates restored and made an addition to the building.〔
In July 2013 Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan was finalizing the purchase of the Cornice and Slate Company Building, which had the ''Metro Times'' and Paxahau, an event production and management company that produces the Movement Electronic Music Festival. The Cornice and Slate building is adjacent to the BCBS Bricktown customer service facility. The acquisition of the Cornice and Slate building would add additional space to BCBS's Greektown facility. The ground floor lease to the Flood's Bar & Grille would be maintained while the Cornice and Slate second and third floors would be used as office space for about 100 BCBS employees.〔Rupersburg, Nicole.

Tuesday July 16, 2013. Retrieved on January 1, 2014.〕 This means that the other tenants would be expected to move out of the building. Helen Stojic, director of corporate communications for BCBS, did not state the sale price of the building. BCBS was expected to close on the purchase in August 2013.〔Pinho, Kirk.

By July 16, 2013 Chris Sexson of the ''Metro Times'' stated that the publication had not yet made definitive plans for its new headquarters but was already looking for a new headquarters location.〔 The acquisition forced the ''Metro Times'' to move. The newspaper leased space in a facility in Ferndale, Michigan.〔McGraw, Bill. "(Adieu, Downtown: Metro Times Moving To Ferndale After 33 Years In Detroit )." ((Archive )) ''Deadline Detroit Media''.
