DETROIT — Olympia Development of Michigan plans to renovate and restore Detroit’s historic Eddystone Hotel into affordable housing units. The Eddystone is located at 110 Sproat St. at Park Avenue. The hotel opened in 1924 and Louis Kamper designed the building. Under plans to be submitted to the City of Detroit Historic District Commission, Olympia will completely renovate the property. Approximately 20 percent of the Eddystone’s roughly 100 units would be reserved as affordable housing. The Eddystone will also feature first-floor retail space. Work on the Eddystone Hotel could begin as early as fall of 2015. The project is near the site of the new Detroit Events Center, a mixed-used development and arena for the Detroit Red Wings hockey team. The new event center is slated for completion in 2017.
The Eddystone is located at 110 Sproat St. at Park Avenue.
