It has 500 units and the building is pet-friendly. It was built in just under two years on the former site of the Joe Louis Arena.
Mayor Mike Duggan said it’s a symbol of how far the city has come since its bankruptcy.
“You had a soon-to-be-abandoned hockey arena on this site, and the city in 2014, the idea of building a new high-rise? You think about what you had here at the time -- the David Whitney Building sat empty, the David Stott Building sat empty, the Book Building sat empty, the train station sat empty,” Duggan said. “In 2014, nobody was thinking that this site was going to have any kind of short-term value.”
