DETROIT – Shinola and musician Jack White have bought the building that houses the company's flagship store in Detroit's Cass Corridor with a plan to expand manufacturing and White's record label.
Details of the partnership were released Tuesday.

Third Man Records will be opening its first retail store outside of Nashville in the building.
"Everyone at Shinola is so excited about Third Man Records moving into the Cass Corridor. Unbelievable… There goes the neighborhood," Shinola founder Tom Kartsotis said.
Shinola will also be creating new audio products, such as speakers and headphones.
White was born in Detroit and said the Cass Corridor "has always been the most inspiring area of Detroit" for him. Third Man Records was founded in Detroit in 2001 before moving to Tennessee.
The retail store is set to open by Black Friday, Nov. 27.
The new development means a move for current retail tenant Willy's Detroit, a sister store to Shinola, but current plans are for the storefront to remain within the building.
