One Detroit Center is a skyscraper and class-A office building located downtown which overlooks the Detroit Financial District.

Although the Penobscot Building has more floors (45 above-ground floors compared to 43), One Detroit Center's floors are taller, with its roof sitting roughly taller than Penobscot's. Its floor area is .
==Architecture==
The building was designed by noted architects John Burgee & Philip Johnson, partners influential in postmodern architecture. One Detroit Center was constructed from 1991 to 1993. It houses numerous tenants, including many prominent Detroit law firms, and other banks. In addition to retail, the building also contains a restaurant.
The building is famous for its postmodern architectural design topped with Flemish-inspired neo-gothic spires which blend architecturally with the city's historic skyline.〔 It is constructed mainly of granite. Sometimes called a "twin gothic structure", for its pairs of spires, it is oriented North-South and East-West (as named on a plaque along the Windsor waterfront park). One Detroit Center won an Award of Excellence for its design in 1996. One Detroit Center replicas have become a souvenir item along with those of other Detroit skyscrapers.〔(InFocusTech skyscrapers ). Retrieved on July 16, 2009.〕
Project plans for twin tower, Two Detroit Center proposed directly east of the tower were placed indefinitely on hold. Two Detroit Center parking garage was constructed on the site in 2002.
