The Genesee Towers was the tallest building in Flint, Michigan, United States. It was demolished on December 22, 2013 after a period of inactivity and loss of occupancy.
The tower consisted of 15,979 m2 (172,000 sq ft) of ten-stories of office space atop an eight-story parking garage and lobby for a total of 19 floors. The building stood 250 feet (76 m) high and had been the tallest building in the city of Flint and Genesee County since its completion. Although one building, the plural "Towers" had been used as the building was conceived to consist of two towers stacked on top of each other separated by an air gap. [1]
