The Mondrian @ Midtown. Apartment building at 3435 woodward [[by Detroit 1 coney)

[SpartanDawg]

"“You have probably tens of thousands of people that ultimately want to live in downtown and Midtown. I think we’re a long way from a saturation of the market,” said developer Christopher Jackson. He plans to break ground next spring on The Mondrian @ Midtown, a $26.6-million building at 3435 Woodward"

Hidden in this article was an update on the new building coming in midtown on woodward right next to detroit one coney island.. as we all know there have been signs up there for over a year now promising the construction of the building on that property. Well we found out i believe a month ago that the idea for office space there was scrapped and it is now market-rate apartments. Wonderful news on that front and we finally got somewhat of an update on it today. I wonder if they will keep the original design in the renderings on the giant sign that is plastered on the property. Regardless it seems from the past articles it will include 1st floor retail and possibly a parking structure out back.

Also as you can tell it has a fancy schmancy name now too "The Mondrian @ Midtown"



ps. again there's no demand for new housing in greater downtown, it's all fake, blah blah. /sarcasm

woodward is going to be beautiful by the end of 2016, with the rail complete, the arena coming to completion, and all the various structures dotting it along the path finally complete [[LTU building, hop cat, mondrian apartments, comerica parking lot buildings, and various mixed-use buildings from the redwings arena district)
