The DTE Energy Headquarters is a group of office buildings in Downtown Detroit, Michigan. It is the main office for DTE Energy, a company that provides power to many homes and businesses. The complex has three main buildings: the Walker-Cisler Building, the General Office Building, and the Service Building.

The DTE Energy Campus

The DTE Energy Headquarters is made up of several buildings that work together. They are located in the city of Detroit.

Walker-Cisler Building

The Walker-Cisler Building is the tallest and most noticeable building in the complex. It is a large, dark brown skyscraper. At the very top, you can see bright signs that say "DTE Energy."

This building was finished in 1971. It has 25 floors and stands about 114 m (374 ft 0 in) tall. It is built with steel and has many glass windows. In 2007, the area around the building was updated with gardens and a reflecting pool.

General Office Building

The General Office Building is another important part of the DTE Energy complex. It is located on Second Avenue. This building was built much earlier, in 1921. It has eleven stories and is mainly used for offices.

Service Building

The Service Building is a smaller building compared to the others. It has 6 floors and was completed in 1938. It is located on Third Avenue.

Connecting the Buildings

All three buildings are connected on the second floor by a covered area. This area includes a cafeteria and meeting spaces. The Service Building also has a covered walkway that connects it to the MGM Grand Casino parking garage. DTE Energy employees and casino guests can both use this parking area.
