Unfinished Olympic size pool on the sixth floor of the Detroit Masonic Building. Featuring 1037 rooms and 16 Floors the building opened in 1926. Apparently with the Great Depression no money was available to finish the Olympic sized swimming pool which is situated on the 6th floor of the building. Notice the details in the roof, finished by noted architectural sculpter, Corrado Parducci.

Ed, thanks. Detroit Masonic Building, Temple Street, Detroit City. Unfortunately the area around this building is somewhat rundown.
