Posted a new building today, the old Federal Building [[aka the old Post Office) that stood where the federal courthouse is today. The so-called Million-Dollar Courtroom, which cost the equivalent of $31 million [[when adjusted for inflation) to outfit in the finest marbles and mahogany, was saved and installed in the current courthouse. Being a federal courthouse, you're not allowed to bring your camera in, but we got permission from the chief judge and bring you a rare look at 1890s Detroit elegance. Sadly, the photos do not do it justice.
If interested, you can find a history of the building, old postcards, photos and the courtroom shots at http://buildingsofdetroit.com/places/post

Sorry at the seemingly self-promotion. I don't normally do this, but thought DYers might like to see the courtroom - without having to stand before a federal judge, that is.
