David Stott Building Discussion

Welcome to the Forum, Detroitus. Your first post was a good one.
My law firm was on the 32nd floor of the Guardian Building in the 70's/80's. What was the name of your Dad's firm in the David Stott Building? I bet I knew some of his members.

My father was Robert Corace. His law partner was Kenneth Webb. I think they had there offices there from the early 70s to early 80s. Before then he worked at the Penobscot

A couple other things i remember about the buildings is how great the 4th of July Fireworks show was at that level. Basically at the 30th floor you were eye level with the exploding fireworks over the river.

Also they still had elevator operators but they only worked during the day. After hours you had to operate the elevators yourself with a wheel like device to direct the elevator up or down. Some times I would be allowed to man the wheel which was a complete thrill. I thought this definitely what I wanted to do when I grew up. I don't think I have seen another elevator operator any where since except for old movies.
