The First State Bank was completed in 1925. The Classical Revival-style building was designed by architect Albert Kahn and sculptor Corrado Parducci. The building is located at the corner of Griswold and West Lafayette Streets in the Capitol Park District of downtown Detroit. The four-story building allows for the two primary facades each finished with three-story engaged, fluted Ionic columns between corner antae supporting a low attic story — two columns on Griswold flanking a central entrance and two more on the West Lafayette facade. The main entrance has a Tennessee marble surround filled with carvings of animals, urns, foliate details. The first thru third floor windows are all hot rolled steel with an ornamental rope design and large fixed glass lights. The fourth floor windows are wood double hungs. Between the floors of the steel windows are spandrel panels of marble and cast steel ornamental surrounds.
