The building was constructed in the 1920's, of course, with some recent renovations. Lots of original details prevail. Many have described the look and vibe of the building as an old, NY apt building. The other tenants: multiracial, families, students, young professionals, blue collar workers, seniors...a pretty mixed bag.

*The elevator built in the 1920's can be a little temperamental. Translation doesn't always work. If you have difficulty walking upstairs, I do not recommend this apartment. Even though the elevator works pretty smoothly there is always a chance during your stay (of course) it may be out of order. The doors work manually (you will have to slide the door open and closed) with an old-style accordion gate.

Heads up, Detroit is 420 friendly, you may smell a little herb coming from an apartment or two.

Spotlight Review-
"If you, like me, get a lot out of charming legacy buildings with elevators for example that require manually opening the elevator doors, this place is for you. Despite the age, I found the apartment clean and felt completely safe. Like it or not, developers (one developer in particular) are buying up lots of land in and near downtown Detroit, and those developers (or one developer) have seen it fit to hire private security to patrol the streets all day and practically all night it seems, including the blocks around this building. Not sure what it is, but this building seems to be a hold out or at least it hasn't been torn down and replaced yet. Didn't need a car at all while I was here--just a block from public transit and only a few blocks to a Whole Foods." Feb 2019, Oscar A.

Other things to note
The elevator, built in the 1920's, is old and temperamental. Translation, doesn't always work. If you have difficulty walking up stairs I do not recommend this apartment. Even though the elevator works pretty smoothly there is always a chance during your stay (of course) it may be out of order.

Outdoor parking is first-come, first-served, available in back of the building. No permit required.

Currently, there are no designated free parking options available in Brush Park, Detroit. The neighborhood has implemented a mix of paid parking zones and residential permit parking to manage parking demand, especially due to its proximity to major attractions like Comerica Park and Little Caesar's Arena. However, metered street parking is not enforced on Sundays, making it free on those days. For other days, visitors typically rely on paid parking lots or garages, such as the Brush Street Lot and Adelaide Lot, Soma Garage on Erskine St. which offer affordable rates.

I love to travel and absolutely understand the importance of having a safe, clean, affordable and comfortable roof over my head. I meditate, practice yoga (mostly at home) and love bike riding, the streets. of Detroit are perfect for it. I enjoy going out but, having dinner with a close group of friends at home is priceless. Thanks for checking out my place! Jackie
