It is strange to think of a possible new 600 ft tall building as a disappointment, but Bedrock is at fault for setting the bar to high when they placed [[and still list) the height at 912 on their...
Interesting question, but apples and oranges comparison because RenCen wasn’t built over the foundation of a previous high rise [[Hudson’s building)
They got money from the state to help with the projects. Construction continues every day on the Hudson’s site and Book tower is continuing its refurbishment, plus OCM is 60% complete. Why the...
With both The Mid and TCF/chemical building projects potentially breaking ground in September. Who will be first to start construction on their project? My personal bet is on “The Mid”
Just a guess, but it’s reasonable for them to wait for the foundations of Hudson’s to be completed and steel begin to rise then from the pit before they start Monroe blocks, so they’re not competing...
It was announced in May that construction is on hold 3-6 months for Monroe blocks, while bedrock sorts out the logistics of building both the Hudson’s and Monroe blocks at the same time.
In bedrocks interview regarding Monroe Blocks delays it sounded like it had as much to do with the roads that would have to be closed around the site and using those same roads to transport materials...
It is delayed 3-6 months while they sort out logistics of building Monroe blocks at the same time Hudsons skyscraper, and Campus Martius building expansion.

Some steel was dropped off at the site last Thursday along farmer between phase 2 and 1 portions of the site and Workman were attaching more bedrock/turner construction signs to the fencing in the...
When the convention goers have free time from the convention , they’ll be able to see all the construction at a the bedrock sites downtown, chemical bank headquarters construction, as well as the...
It will be unique, and a destination for people around the country , but it will never be New York or Chicago. Gilbert tested things out in Cleveland before returning to Detroit and he has often...
It’ll be fun to watch the garage and structure finally start to rise. They’re really busy in the pit every day on the tower side and everything looks to be cleaning up and foundation work.
Cities live, die, and are reborn. Those citizens chose to leave for jobs and a better life with no repleshment of new blood. Dan Gilbert is investing in Downtown because it’s where the youth want to...
Seattle and Vegas have good example of ways Detroit could get people from hotels over a busy freeway into thier downtown that Detroit could mimic for those who wish to walk instead of use the PM.
No mention of a lender, but here’s some from a Detroit news article yesterday by Candace Williams”
“The project is expected to create 1,800 construction jobs and 400 permanent jobs, developers said....
Actually the city club [[Statler) site, while still underwhelming, is split with Half 9 stories and back half 7 stories amongst its 288 units. The original plan was for five stories then the current...
