I moved there 2 years ago. I love living there. I bought a 2 bedroom corner unit. Gutted it and it is beautiful. A few of my suburban friends are considering moving there too. The building is in excellent condition. The landscaping is beautiful. I tell everyone it's Detroit's best kept secret. I walk to most places downtown. I feel very safe there. I highly recommend it.

Would you happen to know if there are any tunnels that run to the school across the street? The building and the school were both built in 1961, It would seem that the school was built because of an anticipated increase in school age children, that 1300 would have undoubtedly supplied.
Grandpa Nat was very fond of tunnels.

Never heard of any tunnels but it would of been pretty cool if they did.
