Construction on the first phase of a new 61-unit, two-phase development at Mack Avenue and East Grand Boulevard in Detroit s Islandview neighborhood is expected to ramp up in April following an October groundbreaking.
Construction is expected to begin soon on the first part of a $20.2 million mixed-use development on the site of the former Eastern High School in Detroit s Islandview neighborhood.
The $10 million first phase being developed by a joint venture between nonprofits GenesisHOPE Community Development Corp. and Lansing-based Cinnaire Solutions is slated to have 30 townhomes, plus amenities like a pair of pocket parks, a playground and a community garden. Financing is still being secured for the $10.2 million second phase, which would include 30 more residential units plus 3,000 feet of commercial space.

The Hotel Eddystone at 110 Sproat St. in Detroit under renovation in February 2020.
At risk of losing control of one of their key projects under terms of a development agreement with teeth, the Ilitch family has met all of the redevelopment milestones the city has required of them for the Hotel Eddystone so far.
The Detroit Economic Growth Corp. says the remaining milestone the issuance of a certificate of occupancy is required by Dec. 23, which was extended by 45 days because of state orders halting commercial construction last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
