The Argonaut Building was originally designed to be a research laboratory for General Motors, but in 2007, the company donated it to the College for Creative Studies. Now, the historic structure houses three organizations that are revitalizing Detroit. Detroit Creative Corridor Center takes up the first floor, the College for Creative Studies (CCS) has set up a graphic and product design campus on the second floor, and up on the fifth, you can watch Shinola watches being made at one of the company’s manufacturing sites.
