In dbusiness: The Corner Mixed-use Development Gets Underway at old Tiger Stadium Site in Detroit

By Grace Turner //

“Larson Realty Group in Detroit, the City of Detroit, and several partners today broke ground on The Corner, a $30-million mixed-use development on the former Tiger Stadium site in Detroit’s Corktown district. The four-story project will include apartment and retail space fronting on Michigan Ave., immediately west of Trumbull Avenue.

 

The development will offer 111 units of multifamily apartments, including studio, one-, and two-bedroom floorplans. The 26,000-square-foot ground-level retail space will have an emphasis on local small businesses.”

To the BUILD Institute Community,

On behalf of the BUILD Institute Board of Directors, we want to share that the Board has made the decision to pause operations at the end of 2025.

We recognize that we are living in a time of great uncertainty for small business support organizations across Michigan. This moment offers us an opportunity to reassess how BUILD delivers on its mission, retool our programming, and evaluate new partnership opportunities and our overall business model to ensure long-term sustainability and impact.

In the coming months, we will continue all scheduled programming through December to ensure that all commitments to entrepreneurs and partners are honored. During this time, we will also explore new ways to align our work with the evolving needs of our community, including our network of over 3,000 alums.

Please join us in showing appreciation for the team members and facilitators who have served Detroit’s entrepreneurs and supported BUILD’s mission since our founding in 2012.

If you have any questions about this decision or what it means in the near term, please email us at [email protected].

Thank you for your continued support and for being part of BUILD’s legacy of inclusive entrepreneurship.

With gratitude,
The BUILD Institute Board of Directors
