City Modern is a new development in the Brush Park neighborhood of Detroit. The project is a combination of new and historic buildings of mixed uses that will be suited to the needs of residents from diverse income levels. CHA is facilitating the renovation of the remaining four Victorian-era mansions. This includes a full gut renovation, layout redesign, new porch construction, and the recreation of historic detailing for all of the buildings.

As a part of CHA’s team I surveyed the existing structures, assessed demolition requirements, assisted in developing the layouts, developed details, coordinated the engineering, and produced the construction documents.
