Detroit Property Receives A Big Facelift

A small 1970s vacant and outdated Detroit building received a big makeover. Located along the Qline, between Campus Martius and Hart Plaza and near the 40-story Guardian Building, the building at 511 Woodward Avenue is now home to Michigan’s first Capital One-branded coffee shop with prospects for future restaurant and office tenants. Businessman Zaid Elia completed the $18 million-plus redevelopment which includes an outdoor patio, floor-to-ceiling windows and a slightly expanded footprint. Each floor plate is 7,500 rentable square-feet, making it a good fit for office tenants who may need less space than before COVID-19.
