Detroit certainly seems to have some celebrity buzz now. You've had a lotnumber high profile buy property or do other projects in the city.The skateboarding icon closed on a three-unit apartment building in Detroit’s Woodbridge neighborhood on Wednesday, said Jim Tumey, a senior commercial agent at The Loft Warehouse, a Detroit-based brokerage.
While Hawk is not moving to Detroit, he and his family “wanted to put their money and their stamp on the city,” said Tumey, who finalized the sale. Hawk could not be immediately reached for comment.
The red-brick building, which is about 120 years old, was at one point a single-family home, then at another point a hospital before it was converted into apartments, Tumey said.
When Hawk and his family are in town, they plan to stay in one of the 1,200-square-foot units, while the other two units are leased.
