Penobscot Building Annex is part of the 3 building Penobscot Block.

The Penobscot Block is a complex of office towers in downtown Detroit, Michigan, United States.

The block includes four major buildings. The original 13-story Penobscot Building, the 28-story Penobscot Building Annex, and the prominent 45-story Greater Penobscot Building are connected; [1] the unrelated Ford Building stands adjacent to the three at the southeast corner of the block. [2]

The block is also bordered to the west (along Shelby Street) by the Savoyard Centre, previously known as the Peoples Savings Bank Building and 151 West Fort.
