Woodbridge affordable housing development aims to preserve neighborhood character

A new 60-unit affordable housing development in Detroit’s Woodbridge neighborhood broke ground Thursday.The 4401 Rosa Parks Apartments development is a collaboration of nonprofit developer Cinnaire Solutions and Woodbridge Neighborhood Development, a community-based organization dedicated to inclusive neighborhood growth.
The $25.8 million development will feature a four-story building with 40 one-bedroom and 20 two-bedroom apartments, all offered at affordable rates to meet the needs of Detroiters of varying income levels, according to a news release. The building will also include a small ground-floor commercial space fronting Rosa Parks Boulevard, a community room, green gathering spaces and a corner plaza, according to a news release. A new playground and a MoGo bike share station will enhance the site’s family-friendly and transportation-accessible appeal, supporting the project’s goal of fostering a vibrant and walkable neighborhood.

Funny, I don't know any buildings that ugly in the neighborhood.

I actually don’t think that it’s a bad design; I’ve certainly seen worse. But I’m not sure how it “aims to preserve neighborhood character.” Maybe because they appear to be using brick?
