The Hive

The location at the corner of Gratiot Avenue and Russell Street will make this development a pedestrian crossroads, connecting Eastern Market, Lafayette Park, and downtown Detroit. A mix of apartments, live/work units, workshops, galleries, shops and food venues will be woven into the fabric of existing warehouses and light industrial buildings around the existing alley network, preserving and highlighting existing murals by local artists.

Path of growth
Sits at the intersection of three burgeoning neighborhoods in Detroit’s core business district, with direct access to the historic Eastern Market and downtown. Rental and occupancy rates have increased rapidly, signifying strong demand for housing options. Amenities such as the Dequindre Cut Greenway are examples of placemaking efforts contributing to the vibrancy of the neighborhood.

Mission-based development
An economically diverse community with a commitment to affordability that reaches the average Detroiter. The Eastern Market development will be appealing to a range of Detroiters and will provide an opportunity for residents from all backgrounds to live, work and thrive.

Enriching arts & commercial corridor
Installing creative land and space use strategies, such as live/work units, a green roof, and retail alley boasting the work of local artists in an area that has become a hub for art and culture in Detroit. The commercial corridor along Gratiot has a strong legacy that will be enriched with 16,000 sq ft of retail space that will serve community members.

Contact information forthcoming.
