State of the City Highlight:
Through the Community Benefits process, the Corktown neighborhood is getting 600 new units of affordable housing, 48 affordable apartments at the old Tiger Stadium site, and a new 78-unit apartment complex behind the train station. Longtime residents in Clement Kern Gardens will be protected with no rent increase in the 87 renovated low-income units.
Beyond Corktown’s developments, improvements are being made throughout the city with 24,000 vacant homes demolished and 16,000 sold/rehabbed through the Detroit Land Bank. For the first time in a decade, Detroit has more homeowners than renters and leads the nation in rising value of Black-owned homes – with values doubling in the last 5 years.
