Ross Snags $100 Million for DCI Project

Stephen Ross has acquired a $100 million in the state’s next budget for The Detroit Center for Innovation.  The Detroit native is the developer of the project. He previously committed to donating $100 million for the center to be built. With the budget deal being finalized, the center will have $200 million of its predicted $250 million price tag. Ross’ company will construct the center and donate it to the University of Michigan. The 200,000-square-foot building will be part of a three-building campus located on Ilitch-owned land and parking lots west of the Fox Theatre in Detroit.
