Taking a look at the mark architect Minoru Yamasaki left in Detroit.

From DPTV's documentary "Detroit Designs the World," we transport back to 1950's Detroit when architect Minoru Yamasaki began to make his mark on the Detroit skyline. Most known for designing the World Trade Center, Yamasaki's designs can be seen across Detroit, from the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago Detroit Branch, to the McGregor Memorial Conference Center and the One Woodward skyscraper.
