Midtown West Detroit

CLIENT: PDH Development Group, LLC
LOCATION: Detroit, MI
YEAR: 2017 - 2021


As Executive Architect, McIntosh Poris collaborated with VolumeOne Design Studio LLC to design a mixed-use development, creating a concentration of urban vitality in one of Detroit’s emerging districts. The former Wigle Recreation Center site was one of the largest parcels of vacant land in Midtown.

The more than seven acre site, 35,000 SF space with 26 units was developed as Midtown West, a walkable and integrated residential extension to the Cass Corridor. A variety of housing types and the reconfiguration of the historic street grid by extending 4th Street from Selden to Brainard will contribute to the overall Midtown district. Amenities include a private rooftop terrace with a fire table and outdoor grill, resident lounge, dog wash, yoga room, fitness room, and secured parking for every unit.
