Palms Apartments
The Palms is an apartment building located at 1001 East Jefferson Avenue in Detroit, Michigan. It was one of the first buildings in the United States to use reinforced concrete as one of its major construction materials. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.〔
==Significance==
The six-story apartment building was initially built as a high-class residence between 1901 and 1903 at a cost of about $80,000.〔(Palms Apartments ) from the ciy of Detroit〕 However, the historical importance of this building lies in its construction. The building was designed by the architectural firm of George D. Mason and Albert Kahn Associates, who used reinforced concrete as one of the major construction materials—one of the first buildings in the nation constructed in such fashion.〔 The technique of using reinforced concrete was not fully developed until Julius Kahn, brother of Albert, developed the "Kahn System" of reinforcing the concrete and formed the Trussed Concrete Steel Company in Detroit to produce the steel bar that was developed for this system.〔 In 1905, Building No. 10 of the Packard Plant was built using the new Kahn System.〔Eckert, Kathryn Bishop, ''Buildings of Michigan'', Oxford University Press, New York 1993 pp. 97, 105〕
