Construction of new Woodward West residential, retail site underway in Detroitโs Midtown neighborhood
DETROIT โ A new development project is underway in Detroitโs Midtown neighborhood that will offer over 200 apartments and ground-floor retail space. Construction of Woodward West, a $60 million mixed-use development project, broke ground on Nov. 9 on Woodward Avenue at Stimson Street. Slated to open in the summer of 2022, the five-story structure plans to offer 204 apartments and 25,000 feet of retail space. Officials say the site is meant to be inclusive of the existing neighborhood and its residents: 20% of Woodward West apartments will be offered as affordable housing, while a portion of the retail space will be reserved as โentrepreneur spaceโ for new businesses, officials said Thursday.
