New Boutique Hotel Coming Soon to Downtown


Koucar Management LLC and Holdwick Land Development LLC are co-developing the $50 million downtown Cambria Hotel project, which includes 158 rooms in a new, modular design building, as well as the restoration of the Albert Kahn-designed Walker-Roehrig Building. Five Iron Golf will lease 24,000 square feet with golf simulator bays, bowling, a bar and other activities. EOTech Gear Store will bring outdoor equipment retail and a firearm simulator to another 8,000 square feet. Developers broke ground in 2019, and after an initial target completion date of 2020, the hotel is set to open in late 2022.

Backtracking from my previous blogs from 6 years ago, the El Moore has been a huge success in Midtown since it opened. The most recent photo on the bottom is from 5 years ago when I was in the neighborhood. The park next door, that was built by the same people is gorgeous!

Hillberry Gateway Project at Wayne State University

Wayne State University  approved the $65 million  Hilberry Gateway project in 2018, a  renovation of the Hilberry Theatre  (with the 350-seat Gretchen Valade Jazz Center and 110-seat Jazz Underground), development of a new venue (with a 550-seat main theatre and a 150 to 225-seat Studio Theatre) and outdoor performance and reception space between the two buildings. The Gateway will be the performance home for the Maggie Allesee Department of Theatre and Dance and the Department of Music. Initial site work for the project included  moving the historic Mackenzie House , built in 1895, to a former parking lot at 2nd and Forest in 2019. Opening is set for  late 2022/2023 .
