I've had the opportunity to tour the neighborhood surrounding the Artspace area on the City's near East-Side three times this week with potential investors and local artists looking for additional studio and living space. Every one has fallen in love with Coe Place and the brick oven pizza over at Delta Sonic, right across the street.
A few buildings that appeared on the City's poster have really captured the attention of investors and local artists.

The former Joseph Denzel's Tavern at the corner of Riley and 1325 Michigan, would be a revitalized as a mixed-use project under the City's revitalization program. Google Map - location and City Property Description. This building has been vacant for at least the past 11 years.
The brick former livery stable at 65 Riley is a small building with vast potential as a placeholder for the corner of Holland and Riley. The City hopes to find an active reuse for the unique property, perhaps as a conversion to retail or gallery space. Google Map - location and City Property Description.
Additional opportunities include this HUD owned single family home at 73 Northampton. Here's the City's Property Description for 73 Northampton. There's a Cash Cunningham sign in the front window or you can see the property by contacting Polis Realty.
