Woodborn Partners to Develop $16M Housing Project in Detroit

by Kristin Harlow

DETROIT — The city of Detroit has selected Woodborn Partners to develop a new mixed-income housing project in the Hubbard Richard neighborhood and Mexicantown Business District of southwest Detroit along the border of Corktown. The site, currently vacant land, sits adjacent to Michigan Central Station, the former train depot that Ford Motor Co. is transforming into a campus. The $16 million project will include 60 new apartment units, as well as 5,000 square feet of retail space and 40 parking spaces. The four-story development will also include outdoor amenities. The project is in one of 10 neighborhoods of the Strategic Neighborhood Fund, a fund dedicated to neighborhood development. Construction is expected to start later this year, with completion slated for late 2020. Detroit-based Woodborn has other multifamily projects underway within the city.
