I just hope that the city and the state proclaim the RenCen as a city and state monument. For almost 50 years, the RenCen has been one of Detroit's most famous landmarks and one of the most famous icons and symbols in Detroit, and any modifications that would alter the RenCen's height and architecture should be shunned.

Detroit doesn't have a supertall, but while the RenCen isn't a supertall, it's up there with other tall towers such as the Sears Tower in Chicago, the Empire State Building in NY, the Transamerica Building in SF, the Prudential Center in Boston, and Liberty Place in Philadelphia. Don't demolish the RenCen!
